11.2017 After Maria, we visited one of our residents to bring him new clean sheets and to check on him after the storm.
COREFI helped this man, who is blind, by building him a bathroom so that he could live in sanitary conditions.
At our visit, he showed us that the steel room of his bathroom was damaged in the storm. With the help of your COREFI donations and volunteers, we will be back to fix it.
Ana Sonia Ventura and Sarah Patterson visited a 96 year-old Viequense woman on the North side of the island in November 2017.
Previously COREFI contributed a positionable hospital bed, a commode, and new bedclothes to this resident.
"COREFI essentially loans medical equipment to our clients until it is no longer needed," says Sonia. "Then we clean and recycle the items and give it to the next family with a need. We are very happy to take people's wheelchairs or appliances, and connect them with a new home. Many of our clients need refrigerators for medication, we make use of everything we can. "
Contact us if you have equipment to donate.
