The Story of

Seeing firsthand the dire need for basic medical supplies and equipment in developing countries prompted Dr. Ralph Pennino to begin what is now an organization that collects and ships more than 85 tons of medical supplies and equipment each year.

InterVol has provided medical supplies and equipment to 83 countries around the world and supports more than 103 nonprofits stateside. The best part? InterVol continues to grow each and every day thanks to volunteer support.

InterVol is more than just medical supplies and equipment though. Almost immediately after seeing the desperate need for supplies and equipment, co-founder Dr. Timothy O’Connor recognized that many doctors, nurses and allied health personnel were willing to volunteer their time improving the health of those less fortunate here in the United States and overseas.

This concept has evolved into dozens of teams traveling thousands of miles to treat those affected by homelessness, cancer and other diseases.
