New York State Health Foundation

The Afya Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Yonkers, NY, that plays a vital role in the global medical supply chain. They deliver critical medical supplies, such as sutures, bandages, and surgical instruments, to underserved or compromised health systems around the world, diverting these supplies from landfills and giving them a second life. With their customized shipments, Afya has made a significant impact on healthcare, enabling millions of people to receive the care they need. Afya's work not only improves health outcomes but also strengthens communities and protects the environment. They have collected over 11.6 million pounds of usable medical and humanitarian supplies that would have otherwise ended up in landfills. Through their volunteer program, which includes local schools, religious groups, and community organizations, Afya ensures that these life-saving supplies reach medical professionals on the frontline, making a difference in the lives of those in need.Generated from the website
