MedWish MedWorks is a small nonprofit in the hospital and health care sector, based in Cleveland, Ohio. It reclaims medical supplies and equipment discarded by health care providers, using them to support humanitarian aid and reduce environmental waste. The organization collects donated items, sorts them, and redistributes them to hospitals and clinics in developing countries. Founded in 1993 by Dr. Lee Ponsky, MedWish has grown to create local employment and volunteer opportunities while expanding aid to more than 110 countries. In 2022, it formed partnerships with Wonderstruck Fest and with Elevation Church to support medical relief efforts in Ukraine.
