About us
Project C.U.R.E. was founded in 1987 to address the staggering shortage of medical resources around the world. Since our humble beginnings in a garage in Colorado, Project C.U.R.E. has become the world’s largest distributor of donated medical supplies, equipment and services to doctors and nurses serving the sick and dying in more than 130 countries. Each week Project C.U.R.E. delivers approximately three to five semitruck-sized ocean containers packed with the medical equipment and supplies desperately needed to save lives in hospitals and clinics in resource-limited countries. In addition, each year hundreds of healthcare professionals travel with Project C.U.R.E. to provide medical treatment to communities in need and training to those dedicated to serving them. Project C.U.R.E. is supported by over 25,000 volunteers annually and operates distribution warehouses in seven U.S. cities. In addition to our global work, Project C.U.R.E. pivoted in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to support the need for PPE and medical equipment in the U.S. Since March 2020, Project C.U.R.E. provided more than 15 semitruck loads of medical aid, which equates to 4.5+ million pieces and nearly $5 million of PPE for healthcare workers and first responders. Project C.U.R.E. continues on the frontline of the battle against the pandemic by providing millions of dollars of COVID-19 aid on a weekly basis.

Have you heard?? Sarah Haji, a student in Houston, Texas, has taken the initiative to start her own fundraiser on the behalf of Project C.U.R.E. ❤️ “I first volunteered at Project C.U.R.E.’s Houston warehouse during the pandemic, where I had the opportunity to help sort donated medical supplies that would be packed in a container and shipped to Haiti. Project C.U.R.E.’s mission of sharing medical resources in areas of dire need resonated with me tremendously. My fascination by their team and their ability to execute sparked my decision to join their cause and become a volunteer, helping arrange events to support the cause through my school’s Medical Club” says Sarah. Find the link in our comments to support Sarah reach her goal of $10,000 by July 31, 2024!

Stryker employees had a great time volunteering at Project C.U.R.E's Chicago Distribution Center, where they prepared medical supply shipments that will be distributed to communities in need all over the world. The passion they brought to the volunteer service is greatly appreciated and we look forward to the continued partnership as we work to advance access to healthcare and healthcare technology globally!

A room full of people working to deliver health & hope to those who need it most ❤️ We were joined by the Ambassador of Malawi along with friends from Muslim Aid, Islamic Relief, ADRA, UPS, Pfizer, the State Department, and more to discuss how to continue to help those helping people. We are so grateful for the hearts and minds of those who joined us, and the Peterson family for hosting the event!

Project C.U.R.E. was recently presented with a $1,000 check by a student at Colorado Academy. The student was selected as the winner out of a large group of students shortly after we received a heartwarming message ❤️ “We are doing a project where we pick a charity and write an essay persuading our alumni board to donate 1,000 dollars to the charity of our choosing. I chose Project Cure because I see many people near my home with medical problems and I can’t imagine what it’s like for the rest of the world. I looked at other companies but Project Cure stood out to me because I felt like you helped others in need while making them happy at the same time”. We are so grateful for Ari and the compassion in the hearts of young people 🙌

Volunteer Highlight!! ❤️ The Merck team is one we will always look forward to seeing again! Merck Community Liaisons from across the U.S. took time out to volunteer at Project C.U.R.E.'s Houston Distribution Center. We had so much fun with this energetic team - hoping to see more Merck friends at all our facilities! Special thanks to Shabaura Perryman for making this time together possible. Thank you Merck!
