Summary
Collection of unused maternity equipment: to combat waste & so it can be sent to various different countries for use in foreign hospitalsDetailed description
Stichting Babyhope is looking for people who would like to collect maternity equipment.
Pregnant women in the Netherlands receive a maternity package with medical equipment which they will need during childbirth. Many women give birth in hospital, so they have a lot of equipment which is never used. This surplus equipment cannot be returned to the store and therefore tends to end up in the bin. People can find a collection point via our website. They will then take the package to this point themselves. Some colleagues have a container outside and others accept the items in person, whatever you like. If your items are starting to get in the way, a transport volunteer can come to collect them or you can take them to the depot in Leidsche Rijn. Most collection points receive goods an average of twice a week.
This voluntary work is very easy to combine with work and/or children. It doesn't take much time but makes a big difference. As well as providing babies and women all over the world with access to essential medical items during childbirth, it also helps to combat waste.
