Project C.U.R.E. is the world’s largest distributor of donated medical supplies and equipment to under-resourced hospitals and clinics around the world.
Since its founding in 1987, Project C.U.R.E. has delivered more than 2,000 cargo containers to over 135 countries. Each container holds $350,000 to $400,000 worth of medical equipment and supplies. These shipments give hospitals and clinics the essential tools they need to improve diagnosis, treatment, surgical care, and childbirth outcomes.
