Convalescent Aid Society

Since 1923, we have been dedicated to improving lives through the free loan of durable medical equipment. Our organization began in Pasadena and has expanded to serve both the San Gabriel Valley and San Fernando Valley communities. We specialize in providing essential medical devices to individuals recovering from illness, surgery, or managing chronic conditions. Our services are available to anyone who needs assistance with mobility or home medical care, regardless of age or financial situation. We operate a comprehensive program that includes equipment collection, sanitization, repair, and redistribution to ensure safe and reliable use. As a community-driven organization, we rely on donations of both equipment and funds to maintain our mission of accessibility and support.

Our team works closely with healthcare providers, social workers, and families to identify needs and deliver timely solutions. We maintain two service locations to better serve our growing community, with flexible hours to accommodate various schedules. Through our commitment to sustainability, we promote the reuse of medical equipment to reduce waste and environmental impact. Our organization has helped over 14,000 clients maintain independence in their homes while avoiding unnecessary institutionalization. We continue to evolve our services to meet emerging community needs while staying true to our founding principles of compassion and service.
