Not all surplus is destined for direct donation. Some items can be sold to mission-focused organizations that have budgets but still need access to reliable, affordable supplies and equipment.

Through Mission-Aligned Sales, Aid-Chain:

• Generates sustainable revenue to fund shipments and program operations

• Expands access to discounted supplies for clinics, nonprofits, and partners

• Ensures that sales stay aligned with our mission and ethical standards

Every sale helps fund the next shipment, helping us do more with what we receive.

Our Medical Surplus Recovery program is built on safety, compliance, and dignity.

We partner with:

• Hospitals and clinics

• Medical suppliers and manufacturers

• Other organizations with usable medical surplus

We focus on:

• Clear criteria for what we accept

• Safe handling, storage, and tracking of medical items

• Responsible matching of supplies to appropriate partners and contexts

• Compliance with relevant laws, regulations, and best practices

By preventing usable equipment and supplies from going to waste, we extend their life and impact, while reducing environmental burden.

Moving supplies from donor to destination is more than shipping—it’s stewardship.

Through Aid Distribution, Aid-Chain:

• Coordinates logistics, documentation, and customs preparation for qualified partners

• Works with local and international organizations that understand their communities best

• Prioritizes what is requested and truly needed—rather than just what’s available

• Tracks shipments from origin to delivery as part of our chain of care

Our goal is simple: the right items, in the right condition, arriving where they can be wisely used.

Short-term mission and service teams can have long-term impact when properly equipped and aligned with local partners.

Our Mission Trip Support program helps:

• Churches and mission organizations

• Medical and community service teams

• Educational and outreach projects

We assist with:

• Sourcing appropriate supplies and equipment for trip objectives

• Providing guidance on what to bring—and what not to bring

• Coordinating donations that support ongoing local work, not just a one-time event

We’re committed to strengthening local partners and systems, not creating dependency.
