Welcome to Hastings High School Students

Starting Monday, May 18th, thirteen Hastings High School students will spend 6 weeks working at Afya to fulfill requirements for their senior service internship. The students will gain lots of experience in program design and implementation.
 

The Afya Foundation obtains and ships vital supplies necessary to support medical and surgical initiatives worldwide, with a primary focus on Africa.  Supplies are donated and gathered from hospitals, surgical centers and corporations. Our goal is to serve as a donation-based clearinghouse for the international health community.

Afya has a standardized training procedure for large hospitals and surgical centers to become collaborative partners within the NY Metropolitan area.

By aggressively gathering donations of unused medical supplies the Afya Foundation advances positive health and environmental outcomes by reducing medical waste and incineration. Approximately 7 billion pounds of PVC is discarded every year in municipal solid, medical, construction and demolition waste. Every year, the United States produces approximately 3.2 million tons of medical waste. 

The miracle is not to fly in the air, or to walk on the water, but to walk on the earth.
