DRGT: responding to acute need for medical equipment


As many Mexican health care facilities face the challenge of being unable to receive COVID 19-infected patients due to a lack of beds, Fundación Curando a México, with the help of DRGT Mexico, and a number of local angel funders have facilitated the largest delivery yet of medical equipment into the country.

To assist Project C.U.R.E., (and/or in turn Curando México), with their on-going medical relief efforts, visit www.projectcure.org . With annual deliveries of more than 180 cargo containers to deprived healthcare facilities in over 50 countries comprising donated medical equipment and supplies valued at more than US$60m, you can make a difference.


“What Beth and her team have managed to accomplish is nothing short of a miracle. Semi-trucks with beds worth over US$3m is our biggest shipment into México ever; I am extremely proud and humbled at the same time,” Alfredo Moreno, Managing Director, DRGT Mexico.


“I have noted previously that ‘doing good, is good business,’ and notwithstanding the current situation in our sector and across the globe, and we are extremely grateful for the ability to be able to continue to support Curando México.” Jurgen De Munck, CEO, DRGT.


DRGT had previously forgone its Global Gaming Expo (G2E) 2019 supplier and partner event in Las Vegas and donated those funds towards the foundation’s logistic and transportation costs; in February 2021 the company made a further donation to the non—profit organisation. In addition, DRGT secured a number of Angel Investors and, in so doing, with the help of a ‘dollar-for-dollar’ matched contribution from Mexico’s Fundación IMSS, facilitated the transportation of 1,050 specifically-designed medical relief beds to the country.


Curando México’s Operations Director, Beth Conley noted that: “Whilst these beds will serve a specific purpose during the current pandemic, their “flat pack” design will allow us, in time, to literally fold them away, and then access and transport them, to any location across the country, as soon as they are needed again’.
