Mark Van Sumeren Covid-19 Report Fundraiser

So by now all of you know of the Covid-19 Report that Mark Van Sumeren issues daily.  This is something that he initiated months ago with the intention of providing valuable information to Medical Device Council Members and Sponsors, as well as other key contributors across the healthcare industry.  I don't believe that Mark ever imagined that he would be issuing his 100th edition (done last week), with no end in sight.  Most people do not know the hours of work that Mark puts in on a daily basis (including weekends), and HE HAS NEVER ASKED FOR A DIME FOR HIS WORK!!!   I think that all of you would agree that the value he has provided to those who receive this report is significant during this time of uncertainty.  

On behalf of the Medical Device Supply Chain Council, I am setting up a Go Fund Me page to help Mark recoup some of the investment he has made over the last several months,  and anticipates making for the forseeable future.  The Council will be making a contribution of $1000 to kick off the fundraising.  I would encourage all of you that receive the report to look at the value you and your organization receive and to make a contribution as well.  I know Mark will appreciate any and all contributions. 

On behalf of the Council and our Members and Sponsors, a big "Thank You" to Mark for his continued work.
