Our mission.
Our mission is to raise awareness about the costs of basic medical supplies for ostomy patients, promote understanding, develop solutions, and encourage the donation of ostomy and wound care supplies to minimize medical waste.
More Than A Box is our motto because we not only want to provide the basic needs for those with an ostomy, we also want the community we serve to know we’re all in this together.
Our impact.
Our impact extends far beyond securing essential supplies for those we support. Thanks to our generous supporters, we’ve distributed over 281,000 donated supplies since 2019.
We minimize medical waste and its environmental effect by collecting supplies from people, companies, and medical facilities. 50,000+ lbs of new supplies kept out of landfills.
Our purpose.
Who we help is why Kindred Box exists.
“Thank you for everything you did for my mother. Kindred Box was such a blessing for her and many others who don't have insurance.”

“My dad had an ileostomy and suddenly passed. I hope someone can benefit from his extra supplies because that's exactly what would make him happy.”

“Many are fortunate to have excess ostomy supplies, yet others don’t have any. Making this connection is our intention.”
