Inexpensive pumps and supplies

Any suggestions on where I might inexpensive pump suppplies?

I came across 2 organizations that provide unused supplies to individuals based on the donations they receive from others.  The contact information is shown below.

In addition, you might consider checking with the manufacturer of your pump (if you already have one) to see what they suggest.  If you are active with your local Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) chapter or branch, you might come across individuals who have available supplies because they are changing pumps or switching back to shots.

If you're not a pumper, it would be best to work out your supplies issue before starting on the path to pumping.

Donation Information for Unused Diabetes Supplies
Including, pumps, infusion sets, cannulas, syringes, glucose meters and strips

Supplies can be sent to:
The Charles Ray III Diabetes Association
Website:  http://www.charlesray.g12.com/

Our mission is to make a difference in the lives of people living with diabetes all over the world by providing equipment and encouragement to those in need. The Charles Ray III Diabetes Association will encourage people with Diabetes to take control of their health by providing medical devices and supplies to those unable to afford the cost.

I am not a Non profit organization. I am just one person trying to help diabetics that can not afford supplies.

Good luck!
