The nonprofit has an opportunity to tell the story of how the organization adapted to tremendous external changes in the last year.
Throughout 2020, MedGlobal stood in solidarity with local
communities experiencing some of the most devastating
effects of the COVID-19 crisis, and provided health
support in 11 countries.
Early on, we partnered with local communities to build
resilience in their healthcare systems using innovation,
technology, and technical expertise through a wide
network of healthcare professionals in many countries.
• We provided hundreds of thousands of protective
personal equipment (PPE) to protect nurses and
doctors from contracting the virus.
• We donated PCR machines for COVID-19 testing in
fragile countries and to a safety net hospital in the US.
• We provided precious ventilators and oxygen
concentrators to Sudan, Yemen, Syria, Ecuador,
Colombia, Bangladesh, and Lebanon.
• We supported quarantine centers in Syria, Greece,
Bangladesh, Yemen, and Gaza.
We began building sustainable oxygen generators to
support underserved and vulnerable communities in
Darfur, Sudan and Idlib, Syria.
• We trained frontline health workers who provided
healthcare to tens of thousands refugees and IDPs.
• We advocated on behalf of the populations we serve at
the highest levels.
• We responded to many natural and man-made
disasters in Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, Sudan, Colombia,
Greece, and Gaza, and continued our life-saving
healthcare programs for Rohingya refugees, displaced
Syrians, vulnerable Venezuelan migrants, and other
communities in need.
Together, we served over 1.82 million people and
supported 172 health centers with medical supplies,
medications, and life-saving technology.
