Help someone stand, walk, bathe, heal… and live with dignity.
At Medical Loan Closet of Joplin, we lend medical equipment to neighbors who can’t afford it or whose insurance won’t cover it. Walkers, crutches, wheelchairs, shower chairs—simple tools that make daily life possible after surgery, injury, or illness.
And it’s only possible because of people like you.
Your Donation Changes Lives
Why Give?
Insurance gaps and out-of-pocket costs are real.
When someone is discharged from the hospital, they’re often told to "follow up with your own equipment.” But what if they can’t afford it?
That’s where we come in—
with zero cost to the recipient.
And your donation ensures there’s always equipment ready for the next person in need.
