Medical Textbook Drive
Medical Mission Charitable Trust runs St. Joseph’s hospital, clinic, and nursing school in central Kenya to provide high-quality, affordable health care to underserved populations. To build up our medical reference library for staff and students, we’re seeking the following:
​
Medical school-related textbooks. We can use all textbooks on subjects like:
-
Biochemistry
-
Anatomy
-
Physiology
-
Microbiology
​
Books on all clinical specialties and subspecialties:
​
​
​
​
​
​
​
Nursing school needs:
-
We’d love a wide spectrum of nursing materials! We accept diverse nursing educational materials like those listed above—including anatomy, biochemistry, etc.—that can serve as a reference for our nursing students and staff.
-
No need to send large numbers of one book. More diverse materials are better; our coursework is based on textbook printings that are locally available in Kenya.
Non-book reference materials. The following are also useful:
-
Good teaching digital clips
-
Medical and nursing teaching posters
-
CPR materials
-
Medical mannikins
Condition: We prefer well-kept textbooks published in the past 15 years. We will accept relevant, good-condition textbooks with earlier publication dates. (Please use your best judgment if sending older books to make sure the information is up-to-date)
Please don’t donate journals and magazines. Medical journals and magazines we’ve found are not generally worth the cost of shipping to Kenya.
Send books to:
6510 Millrock Dr., Suite 250, Holladay, UT 84121
