From landfill to lifesaving - for more than twenty years a group of northern Canadian volunteers has been saving tons of redundant (but still useful) medical equipment. They have sent more than 100 ocean containers (including ambulances, X-Ray machines, breast screening trailers and OR supplies), to needy countries like Cuba, Zimbabwe and El Salvador. The story of MEMO (Medical Equipment Modernization Organization) is a heartwarming account of people helping people, simply because they believe it is the right thing to do. MEMO is a northern, grassroots community organization based in Thunder Bay, Ontario Canada, and receives no government or corporate funding. This inspiring story started with one man's dream, which was fueled by prayer and resulted in miracles, as vision and passion were transformed into reality through the dedication and hard work of hundreds of individuals who donated, volunteered, and carried suitcases to Cuba. It exemplifies how God's love, human compassion, resourcefulness and sweat equity trumps poverty, social injustice, bureaucracy, corruption and human greed. If you need some light in the darkness, or don't believe that good is more powerful than evil, you need to read this book.
