Giving

Where your gift goes

A gift to Pure Works buys medicine far below its wholesale value and carries it to the people who need it most.

Three steps

  1. Bought below wholesale. Pure Works buys medicine and medical supplies through MAP International at a small fraction of their wholesale value.
  2. Packed and carried. Mission partners pack the medicine into travel packs and containers and carry it themselves.
  3. Handed over. It is handed to a clinic, an orphan or a widow, with free treatment from the doctors and nurses who travel with it.
