The people there were very nice and very helpful. I'm so thankful for this place, Everything was free and we were graceful for their help. Not too many places you can go to to get diapers and other things for an adult. You don't pay for anything because everything is donated to them. We left a donation and you can too because u never know who else might need some help. Again we are thankful.

Wonderful place to donate and receive free medical appliances and supplies, like canes, walkers, toilet seats, adult diapers, etc. Recycling at its finest. Limited days and hours so check the web for details. Right now it's Fridays from noon to 4:00.

I have nothing but love for this organization and the people that run it. When I was in desperate need taking care of my grandmother at home. I needed to get so many things, to even make it possible to care for her at home. She was bedridden and needed to go to dialysis 3 times a week. I was in full panic mode when you folks helped me out. And you did more for us then I could ever thank you. I would have never been able to do it with out your help. The wheel chair ramp and hospital bed, allowed my grandmother to spend her last year at home with me. And for that I am forever grateful. God bless you all, and thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

You will need to visit our site during open hours. You will need his height, weight and the type of chair (manual vs transport). The line is long when we open at noon. Donations are very limited, so there is no way to know in advance. Good luck, I hope we can help him.
