Mission Statement
IMEC’s mission is to transform impoverished communities around the world. We provide equipment solutions for health care, agriculture, and education projects in developing countries. We work in collaboration with other humanitarian organizations, governments, faith-based groups and individuals. Together, we have transformed communities in over 80 developing countries since 1995.
Description
IMEC provides equipment, tools and supplies through IMEC Suites. Each Suite contains all of the equipment, tools and supplies needed to operate a service or department. For example: an Exam Room Suite contains all materials needed a doctor needs to operate an exam room; a Family Farm Suite provides a local farmer with the tools he or she needs to set up and run a small farm; and a Classroom Suites provides the desks, chairs, chalkboards and other materials a teacher needs to create a classroom for his or her students. IMEC serves the needs of local doctors, nurses, teachers and farmers, relying on their knowledge of which materials are most needed for their communities.
