Thank you Elliot Sloyer for your informative presentation on the Wheel It Forward program.
Our Vision
To change the way people from all socio-economic backgrounds think about the availability, use, and reuse of durable medical equipment - thereby improving quality of life, saving hundreds of millions of dollars, and keeping billions of pounds of DME out of landfills. To create, template and operate a branded lending library where people who need durable medical equipment (DME) can borrow it, and where people who have lightly used DME can conveniently donate it to benefit others, and the environment.
Wheel It Forward combines technology - systems templates and tools, with community engagement volunteers, to operate a branded library where people can seamlessly donate and borrow DME. We attract lightly used DME through various channels and employ best practices to sanitize, repair (when needed) and efficiently lend out DME to those who need it. We generate demand by reaching out to the medical community to raise awareness for this resource.
