What Medshare International Inc does
Mission
The medshare mission is to improve the quality of life for people, communities, and our planet through efficient sourcing and delivery of surplus medical supplies and equipment to communities in need.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Program
On its FY2024 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.
During FY23, MedShare made a strategic decision to expand support for domestic clinics while reducing international container shipment volume. To support this shift, MedShare implemented a new ordering portal that enabled domestic partners across the country to place orders fulfilled directly from the Decatur, Georgia location. These domestic orders are much smaller than traditional large-scale international container shipments requiring less inventory volume. As part of this operational transition, MedShare consolidated operations and closed warehouse and distribution sites in California and New Jersey, reducing warehouse capacity by more than 60,000 square feet. During the transition, MedShare utilized a third-party logistics (3PL) provider in California to continue supporting regional partners and receiving inbound donations. In preparation for FY24, MedShare implemented measures to reduce overall inventory levels through more selective acceptance of Gifts-in-Kind (GIK) donation offers and the removal of expired, short-dated, damaged, or otherwise unsuitable product that could not be distributed to partner organizations. MedShare uses the "Adjust Out" inventory function to remove such product from inventory records. At the end of FY25, MedShare exited the California 3PL warehouse and transitioned to a direct-shipment model in which donations from California partners were shipped directly to MedShare facilities. As part of the warehouse exit process, inventory remaining at…

During the fiscal year 2025, the medshare mission served 166,866 patients in 43 countries through our maternal & child health program (served 14,626 mothers and babies in 10 countries), primary care program (served 4,430 healthcare professionals in 42 countries, including 187 free and charitable clinics and 130 medical mission teams), disaster preparedness and emergency relief program (served 87,500 men, women, and children across 6 countries through the help of 3,101 healthcare professionals), and infectious disease control & prevention program (served 52,830 men, women, and children across 25 countries through the help of 1,872 healthcare professionals). The biomedical equipment training and repair service supported 128 engineers, technicians and end-users in the united states this year and 2,366 volunteers sorted and inventoried supplies at our facility in georgia. As we continue to be mission focused, we want to help more people and communities in ways that will leave a more lasting impact.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $29M to $19M (−33%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 2%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
94% of MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC’s revenue is contributions — about as donation-reliant as the typical peer (97% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 4 of the last 9 reported years ran a deficit.

Who funds it, year by year
2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 46 funders to 59 funders, grant income rose $1.0M → $1.3M.
29 of 160 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 31% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.
From the IRS filings of MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC’s funders (the co-funder graph). Top 30 of 160 funders by total. Association, not causation. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How concentrated its funding is
MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC has a broad base — no single funder exceeds 12% of grant income, and it takes 9 funders to reach half.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 9 funders to its left
66% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2017 20% · 2018 24% · 2019 19% · 2020 19% · 2021 14% · 2022 11% · 2023 26% — growing more concentrated.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
How long its funders stay
42% of MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC's funders are still giving 3 years after their first grant; 54% give in more than one year at all.
Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.
Where its funders are
MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC draws 73% of its grant income from funders outside Georgia, across 28 states in all.
In-state vs out-of-state, by year
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $3.4M arriving through sponsors registered in 16 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Against its field
MEDSHARE INTERNATIONAL INC's funding base is broadening — from 46 funders to 59 as grant income climbed.
