Primary exempt purpose

Assists Medically Needy

  • ReCARES collects new and lightly used medical equipment and supplies and redistributes them to those in need. In 2024 ReCARES collected over 42,000 items of no longer needed home health supplies and equipment from 4521 donors, and redistributed those items to more than 9770 people in need.

    Expenses $103,400

  • Other Program Services & Accomplishments: ReCARES provides donated medical equipment and supplies to thousands of people in need; seniors and people with disabilities. This donated equipment allows recipients to participate more actively in their communities, fostering better physical and mental health. This year we collected and distributed more than 42,000 medical items, effectively diverting them from the waste stream and gave them to people in need in our community. This effort provides a safety net for people who have been unable to get walkers, commodes, wound care, wheelchairs, etc., helping them stay in their homes and out of hospitals. As ReCARES has been growing this service for more than 29 years, the network has grown; through collaborative efforts ReCARES supplies other agencies with needed items and referrals, raising awareness, making connections and building a community of like-minded organizations through caregivers and those they serve. This is increasingly necessary as the need grows due to rising healthcare costs. In 2024, our three Bay Area sites served 4521 equipment donors and distributed valuable supplies and equipment to more than 9770 recipients in need.
