Delivering Health & Hope to the World
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.

Equipment donation shoutout! Stryker generously donated bedside tables and Gynnie mattresses! These donations were loaded onto a truck by a Hurley Medical team and sent off to help remote clinics in Suriname. “While most of the population of Suriname lives along the coast, there is a percentage that lives in the more remote interior of the country. These village can only be reached by boat as there are no roads to get to them. If someone is sick or a mom is ready to have her baby, it also means that the only way to get to a hospital is a long journey via a boat and then walking or taking a taxi. By having more equipment in these remote clinics, the medical staff will be better equipped to care for their community without them having to travel long distances” Thank you to Stryker and our amazing volunteers!! ❤️

“I hope other people will see what I have done here, and that they are motivated to make a gift to help Project C.U.R.E.”, says John Evans, a Wyoming philanthropist and Rotarian, after making a $1 million donation to Project C.U.R.E. The generous match from Mr. Evans will underwrite the delivery of approximately 60 additional semi-truck sized ocean containers of essential medical supplies and equipment to Ukraine in 2024. On average, the wholesale value of a shipment is $350,000 to $450,000, for an additional impact over $25 million in medical relief. “Mr. Evans’ gift makes possible the continued effort to support the people in Ukraine,” said Dr. Douglas Jackson, President/CEO of Project C.U.R.E. “We have made a commitment to not forget the victims of this horrible war, and that commitment is more important now than at any time since the invasion.”
