Medical Equipment Loaner Program

When I was diagnosed with cancer and we moved to a smaller location, we gave away all of our medical equipment. Last Christmas an angel replaced all our wheelchairs, and crutches with brand new ones! Another wonderful soul donated an Oxygen machine to add to our walker and nebulizers we had kept. I took that as a sign that the good Lord wants us to continue providing this service to the community.

Use of our medical equipment is free of charge to anyone in need and as a rental to anyone that can afford it. Proceeds from the rentals and donations go towards our community aid program.

How you can help

Donate any medical equipment you no longer need! It can be part of our inventory or donated to someone in permanent need! If you need one of these item,, RENT FROM US by making a DONATION to the program.

Inventory

Shower/Toilet Chair with Wheels, Three pairs of assorted size crutches, Two wheelchairs,   Walker with Wheels, Toilet seat Riser, two nebulizers, and an oxygen concentrator machine.

The Book Exchange

As I explained, we were forced to close the store and move to a smaller location. The Cozumel Public Library graciously agreed to take over our Book Exchange. I am hoping they will graciously give them all back!

In the meantime, we have a limited amount of older books available. Feel free to come by but call us first, we do not have staff to cover when I have doctor appointments. 987 118 4453 (Aura), 987 118 8020 (Julian), or auraholguin@thecozumelsun.com.

Please help us get back on our feet! By January first we need to raise the money necessary for the business license and fees, around $10,000 pesos. In addition, we must restock the store.

Gently used Clothing and household items for our fund-raising garage sales.

Medical Equipment such as canes, walkers, and wheelchairs for us to distribute to those in need.

Medical Supplies including adult diapers support stockings, braces, orthopedic shoes, and bandaging

.Books! We are restocking the book Exchange and hope to also have the Cozumel Public Library return our shelves and books by year end.
