When durable medical and mobility equipment is no longer needed most people feel that the right thing to do is pass it along so it can help someone else. That is where MSHH comes in. We are all volunteers who accept donations of this good equipment, refurbish it and make it available to others at a very affordable “suggested minimum donation” amount. And, because we are a 501(c)3 non-profit charity, the money that we take in above our expenses is made available to assist those in Washington, Northern Idaho, Montana and Alaska with Multiple Sclerosis. We don't charge tax and your donations may be tax deductible. Recently we decided to lower our prices on many popular items to become super competitive and at the same time we extended our warranties to 90 days. And we did this without lowering the quality of the products we offer. Check our site to see what we have on hand at our three MSHH Donor Closet locations - then come to see us. Or, if you have Multiple Sclerosis see how we partner with other agencies to assist you.
