OUR ACTION IN MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE.

It is our commitment to utilize our resources to do more, to do what is right, and to do what we can to increase wellness in our world.

MEDICAL MISSIONS

ACTIVISTS FOR WELLNESS

Empowering over 200 teams of medical professionals who serve in over 90 countries

UW Milwaukee Guatemala Trip

MDF Instruments is proud to highlight the positive impact of its recent donation to the UWM mission trip to Guatemala. The generous contribution of high-quality stethoscopes and blood pressure equipment has played a crucial role in enhancing maternal and infant healthcare in the region.

A Day of Generosity and Togetherness

At MDF Instruments, we believe in the power of community and giving back. Recently, we had the incredible opportunity to partner with Pastor José Garcia and House of Mercy Church in Rincón, Puerto Rico for a food bank drive that brought much-needed support to local families in need.

Free Burma Rangers

The Free Burma Rangers (FBR) is a multi-ethnic humanitarian service movement. They bring help, hope and love to people in the war zones of Burma. Ethnic pro-democracy groups send teams to FBR to be trained, supplied and sent into the areas under attack to provide emergency medical care, shelter, food, clothing and human rights documentation.

Health Volunteers Overseas

At MDF Instruments, our commitment extends beyond crafting superior medical tools; it encompasses a vision for a healthier, more equitable world. We are honored to partner with Health Volunteers Overseas (HVO), an organization dedicated to enhancing healthcare access and quality in resource-scarce regions.

Empowering Healthcare Access

At St. George's International Medical School, students are more than just learners; they are agents of change. Through the Global Medical Brigades, an initiative aligned with Global Brigades, they transcend classrooms to touch lives in remote communities worldwide.

Palestine Children's Relief Fundraiser

Step into the middle east and go into a local doctors office, expect it to be one of two things; either packed because there are limited resources, or it could be empty since many people cannot afford to go to the doctor. This is something that would touch anyone in healthcare.

Heart Trust Inc.

Home to one of the world's earliest and greatest civilizations, Monica Patino and her team traveled to Cairo Egypt to work with Al Nas Children's hospital pediatric cardiac ICU in October 2022. MDF Instruments is proud to be partnered with Heart Trust Inc. on this most recent mission with a donation of a variety of stethoscopes and blood pressure monitors to support their recent mission.

UniCare Specialized Polyclinic

Through the best clinic services they can provide, UniCare Specialized Polyclinic is a dream-team of passionate clinicians dedicated to improving community health and wellbeing. This is why MDF is honored to be partners with UniCare, providing them with stethoscopes and blood pressure monitors.

Paloma Blanca Ministries

It only took one customer service phone call inquiring about our stethoscopes to discover a newfound partner whose drive to be local philanthropists was discovered. During the conversation it surfaced that Cynthia Ruiz and her Husband Manuel Ruiz are founders of a non profit organization called Paloma Blanca Ministries.

University of Mayaguez

MDF Instruments is proud to share our instruments and compassion for crafting wellness through education with our neighboring University of Mayaguez Puerto Rico - Department of Kinesiology. Working alongside the head of the department, Dr. Carlos Torres Ramos was able to connect with us to organize a donation.

Ten Eighteen Uganda

With compassion and heart felt benevolent smiles, there is nothing that Ten Eighteen Uganda cannot do. This non profit organization is a motivating firehouse for Uganda and their community. Targeting the slums of Uganda is a perceived area where the poor and lower class live, and are categorized as criminals, addicts, and more.

Ukraine Military Donation

The war that has broken out in Ukraine has brought suffering, casualties and sorrow. Thanks to MDF Instruments’ Ukrainian distributor Meditor, our team was able to make a substantial donation of stethoscopes and medical equipment to the Ukrainian military and other medical organizations.

COHECF

Sometimes it can be hard to give what you want to the world, without the basic necessities of that goal. Dr. Asomba Tobias had a vision when he started COHECF and limited resources didn't stop him. To help Dr. Asomba achieve his goals, MDF donated stethoscopes, sphygmomanometers, reflex hammers and penlights to COHECF.

Barnabas Task Inc Mission

Barnhem Muang Mai Mission

Barnhem opened in February 2005 and initially focused on helping tsunami victims. All of those have been able to move out and today Barnhem is not disaster victim oriented – many people in Thailand were already poor and exposed before the flood waves. Today Barnhem houses children for many different reasons. Many have lost one or both, of their parents; others are here because they lack a family member or relative to care for them - or their relatives lack the strength to do so.
