About us
Since it’s inception 30+ years ago, Not Just Tourists has spread to chapters across the world, with over 10,000 suitcases and 2,000,000+ lbs of medical supplies and equipment delivered to 82 countries.
Not Just Tourists receives donations from Canada’s largest hospitals, clinics, medical suppliers and individuals. The supplies donated are typically gauze, bandages, surgical instruments, masks, gloves, antiseptics, IV kits, urinary supplies and birthing kits. The supplies are packed by volunteers into suitcases during weekly “packing parties”. Travellers sign up and are given the suitcases to deliver to remote clinics where they are needed. The project does not accept funding, is non-political, non-religious. Everything is accomplished through volunteers.
