Bound Tree Medical Donates Medical Supplies to Ukraine

DUBLIN, OH—Bound Tree Medical announced April 21, 2022, that it has teamed up with NAEMT to donate 50 pallets weighing over 9 tons of emergency tactical medical supplies to assist personnel tending to the injured in war-ravaged Ukraine.

Given the logistical challenges of getting supplies into the country, it was important to have a direct relationship with the Ukrainian government, a company release states. Bound Tree and NAEMT established a partnership with senior personnel within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kyiv to coordinate the shipment and deployment to the stricken areas.

“We are thankful to be able to work with Bound Tree to facilitate their generous donation to the struggling medical facilities and personnel in Ukraine,” said Bruce Evans, president of NAEMT. “These medical supplies will help alleviate the suffering of Ukrainian civilians and soldiers injured in the war. NAEMT is honored to partner with Bound Tree on this initiative.”

“Every day, we strive to be the best partner to our customers,” said Rob Meriweather, president of emergency preparedness at Sarnova. “And when disaster strikes, our customers want someone who has seen it before and can do what it takes to get the job done quickly. Bound Tree is pleased to donate the products and lend a hand in this joint effort.”
