Become more that just a tourist. Travel with a suitcase of medical supplies.

Not Just Tourists is a grassroots organization that helps ordinary travelers gift remote clinics around the world with much needed medical supplies. Any traveler destined for a developing country can carry our suitcases of donated medical supplies provided they deliver it, in person, to a remote clinic in need. All medical supplies are donations from healthcare that would otherwise be destined for Canadian landfills. Instead, they save lives and allow travelers to become more than just tourists.
