  2. Project #2: Save Our Supplies

    Save Our Supplies create free medical supplies by repurposing clean hospital waste. Their collection bins in the operating theatres of Brisbane hospitals are used to collect clean, unused supplies and equipment that would otherwise be sent to landfill. By partnering with community outreach programs in QLD and overseas to facilitate distribution, they improve healthcare outcomes for vulnerable individuals and families.

    They will pitch to fund the purchase of a delivery vehicle, enabling Save Our Supplies to collect an additional 2 ton of unused medical waste each week.
