National Nurses Week: April 6-12

Today is the day when we recognize the contributions of some of the most amazing, hard-working, dedicated, and compassionate people on the planet… nurses! Happy Nurses Week to you all, but a special Nurses Week blessing to our amazing nurse volunteers! Thank you for putting so much heart into everything you do!

A Visit With Pastor Jacob Lang

Pastor Jacob Lang is a minister with the Assemblies of God church in Jos, Nigeria. He is no stranger to MMI, and we were delighted and blessed with the opportunity to spend time with him at a recent visit to the Broadway St. warehouse. We’re looking forward to partnering with Pastor Jacob again. 

'23 Annual Gala

The Partnership Council is planning a fabulous event. Mark your calendars for Friday, August 25, for a fantastic meal, and a message from CRMC trauma and general surgeon, Dr. David Jeffcoach, where you will hear how MMI has partnered with the work Sodo Christian Hospital in Sodo, Ethiopia. 


Tickets will be available soon; stay tuned!


BAKERS! We need your help! Our highly anticipated dessert auction is back, and we want to feature your dessert. Cheesecakes, pies, cakes, cookies, and desserts of all kinds are welcome and wanted.

From Trash to Treasure


Many thanks to Life Cathedral Church in Fresno for recently donating an old fireworks stand! The wood from the stand will be used to crate and protect many pieces of fragile medical equipment during its journey overseas. It will also be used again at the end destination.

Volunteer Update: Join Us in the Warehouse This Saturday!

Kudos and thanks to the great group of medical students from California Health Sciences University (CHSU) in Clovis who volunteered to sort medical supplies on Saturday, April 22. This was a hardworking crew, and we’re grateful for their time and support. 


Join us for our next Saturday Serve Day on May 13th from 9:00–12:00 at our Broadway St. warehouse. No medical experience is necessary; we’ll teach you everything you need. Come with closed-toe shoes and the willingness to get your hands dirty. We’ll have snacks, a corny joke, and the opportunity to be featured in a future newsletter.
