For verified beneficiaries

Most home-care equipment sits idle for years after a recovery. Meanwhile, families one neighbourhood over are spending lakhs to rent the same device. The Medical Equipment Bank closes that gap.

What we accept

  • Wheelchairs
  • Walkers and walking sticks
  • Oxygen cylinders and concentrators
  • BiPAP / CPAP machines
  • Nebulizers
  • Hospital beds
  • Water and air mattresses
  • Commode stools
  • Syringe pumps
  • Pulse oximeters and glucometers

If your equipment works, or just needs minor repair, it can save a life.

How it works

  1. Donate unused or repairable equipment — call +91 93640 24365 for pickup in Bengaluru.
  2. Request equipment if you or someone you know needs it — call our 24/7 Active Health helpline at +91 93640 24365.
  3. Return when you no longer need it, so the next family can use it.

We verify need, sanitise and refurbish equipment between users, and keep a public register of what’s currently available.

Why this matters

The economics are absurd. A used oxygen concentrator depreciates to ~zero in storage; the same machine rents for ₹5,000–₹10,000/month. By circulating equipment, we are quietly returning lakhs to the families who need it most.
