To sustainably support and enhance Sri Lanka’s healthcare infrastructure.
Collect, refurbish, store, and transport essential medical equipment and supplies; then donate them equitably to underserved government hospitals in Sri Lanka
We receive donations of functional medical equipment from various San Francisco Bay Area hospitals, which are surplus and used. These donations encompass a diverse array of items such as hospital beds, patient transport stretchers, hospital furniture, and other essential medical equipment.
While the medical equipment we receive is donated, there are ongoing expenses associated with essential activities such as collecting, transporting, storing, refurbishing, and ultimately shipping them to Sri Lanka as a container load. We conduct our activities with full transparency from start to finish, ensuring that your financial contributions are utilized efficiently to advance our mission.
We receive ongoing generous monetary donations from friends of Sri Lanka in the USA, as well as from a biennial key fundraising event – a Dinner Dance. All funds received are allocated to expenses related to collection, transportation, storage, shipment, clearance, insurance, maintenance, and fundraising efforts.
The Hospital Services Support Foundation (HSSF) is a volunteer-run organization. We are a federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in the San Francisco Bay Area, California. Donors can tax deduct contributions made to us under IRS section 170.
We are currently partnering with the Hospital Services Council (HSC) at National Hospital of Sri Lanka to ensure our donations are distributed equitably across Sri Lanka.
Your generous donations are crucial for us to sustain our efforts, and we deeply appreciate any assistance you can offer, including volunteering to share your expertise.
