Day 2: Wow, I got to experience too much to tell, so I will just let you know about our first stop for the day. We started our day at an organization called Med Share. Med Share is a non-profit that collects medical supplies that hospitals would otherwise throw away and ships those supplies to countries in need. It was suprising to learn that the hospitals in the United States discard thousands of supplies daily that have never been touched and could be used in another country. It was sad to think about how many supplies are being wasted here in America while people are dying in other countries because they lack the proper medical supplies.
