CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
Your group was so
gracious and willing
to help, it was like a
ray of sunshine.
Thank you for
making such a
positive impact on
people’s lives. It
means more than
you will ever know.
At a time that feels
precarious, worrisome
and frightening, these
wonderful people come
through with exactly
what you need.
Without MELP we
could not afford a
wheelchair for my
dad. Now he is able
to get around the
house by himself.
It’s wonderful that
MELP connects the
used equipment with
people who need it.
I love that we can
donate these items
and not have to
throw them away.
