Working closely with U.S. hospitals, corporations, businesses and individuals, Matthew 25: Ministries has shipped an estimated 115 million pounds of donated humanitarian supplies to the needy in the United States of America and impoverished countries in Central and South America, the Caribbean, the Balkans and Africa.

"Both at home and abroad, MediPurpose recognizes its obligation to be a socially responsible company, and we are again delighted to learn that our donation will further Matthew 25: Ministries in its mission," said Rudnak.
