Jewish Family Service of Lancaster (JFS) is asking the community to donate clean, functional durable medical equipment to help meet a growing local need. Items in especially short supply include walkers, rollators, shower chairs, and bedside commodes. These essential items help individuals maintain safety, mobility, and independence while recovering from illness or injury, or while aging at home.

Larger equipment - including power wheelchairs, mobility scooters, hospital beds, and patient lifts - can be redirected to the Durable Medical Loan Closet at Grace Church in Lititz.

JFS provides support to individuals and families throughout the community, guided by the values of dignity, compassion, and service. Through programs that assist older adults, caregivers, and vulnerable community members, JFS works to ensure that neighbors in need have access to practical resources and human connection.

Because storage and staffing are limited, equipment donations cannot be dropped off without prior arrangements, and JFS is unable to offer equipment pickup. To arrange a donation drop-off, call JFS at 717-537-1863.
