Project C.U.R.E.

I have volunteered with this organization over 5 years and have seen the impact our work has accomplished. Under-resourced countries are very grateful for the donated equipment and supplies we have sent them. It not only improves the quality of their health care but also provides hope for the community.

I am a retired emergency department RN and my husband is a retired physical therapist. We have been volunteering with Project C.U.R.E for 24 years, sometimes, 5 days a week. We check and pull loads of medical supplies and equipment to send to more than 130 developing nations across the world. If we didn't feel that Project C.U.R.E. was a wonderful mission, we would not have spent the past 24 years helping. There are 7 warehouses across the US. Project C.U.R.E. is mainly staffed by volunteers with a professional group of employees leading our way. The founder of Project C.U.R.E, Jim Jackson's son, Doug Jackson is president and CEO. Project C.U.R.E, has a 98% ranking with Charity Navigators and definitely should be on a list of the best non profits in the US!.

I have been volunteering with Project CURE for over 12 years and currently serve as a team leader. I have been volunteering in general for over 48 years- in a wide array of organizations and done about every type of volunteer work you can image from cleaning up yards for low income families to serving on boards of directors. I currently volunteer at Project CURE about 10-15 hrs/month on top of my "day job" of running a company.

What is special about Project CURE is the direct impact you can have on a large number of people. In two hours of volunteer work, one volunteer can touch a couple of hundred different medical supplies which in turn will have a direct impact on that many people! The groups of 8-15 people will sort through 2,000-4,000 items in a two hour session. I haven't found many other volunteer opportunities where I can impact that many people in two hours! And the impact can be life changing- in extreme cases like having clean gauze instead of washed and reused gauze. Or having a procedure done with a scalpel blade instead of a tin can lid. Or a provider having clean/fresh gloves instead of rewashed gloves.

Plus, I love that Project CURE operates on a tight budget insuring that nearly 97 cents of every dollar donated goes to support their mission!

I have been volunteering at Project Cure for many years and never get tired of it because here you get the feeling that your work is really making a difference in the world. They do a great job of sourcing donated medical supplies, processing them and sending them on to places all over the world where they have established a great need, all with very little overhead and a lot of volunteer power. Volunteering at Project Cure is really rewarding.

My wife and I have no medical experience, but we have begun volunteering for Project C.U.R.E. because we personally hate to see waste of any useful resource. Rather than relegating unused medical devices discarded by hospitals and clinics to a landfill, we sort, verify expiration dates, and prepare a huge array of medical material for shipment to other countries where they are simply not available. Everything from bandages to heart catheters enable doctors in countries throughout the world to save lives that would otherwise be lost.

This is a great place to volunteer. I help them test and repair medical equipment and it's very rewarding. I like being able to utilize my technical skill to help so much. It's great to know that we are helping so many people and keeping a lot of equipment out of the landfill. The people that volunteer at Project CURE have been a great experience. I've been volunteering there for more than 10 years.

This organization has made such a difference in the medical care for Cambodians! They have donated the extensive medical equipment and supplies to outfit two operating rooms, six ICU/PACU beds, and six postoperative rooms for the first neurosurgeon in Cambodia after the turn of the century enabling him to provide both many brain and back surgeries regardless of socio-economic status. American general, orthopedic/hand, and gynecological surgeons as well as cardiac physicians also use this facility to evaluate patients for surgery and cardiac procedures including heart valve surgeries and cardiac ablations during short-term trips. As both medical and nursing students are able to learn from our physicians and nurses, Project C.U.R.E. has been a invaluable resource for Christian Medical Ministry to Cambodia providing us with essential tools to provide this care and education. We are so grateful for the continued support over the years--thank you, Project C.U.R.E.!!

Project Cure is so well organized you can walk in at any time and get to work. All of the volunteers are happy to be there and enjoy the work they are doing. Happy people working side by side, making a difference.

The best part of this is the impact we have on the world. Helping others receive medical equipment necessary to save lives!

I have volunteered for 5 hours per week since mid January 2022 by serving in the fine sorting area. My contribution to Project Cure may be small but the mission of Project Cure is huge. There are so many big problems in the world. Alone we feel powerless to help, but together we can make a difference to bring real help and hope to a world in need.

The workers and other volunteers at Project C.U.R.E were so welcoming and helpful during my time there. I fed off the energy of the other individuals and the tasks I completed truly made me feel Like I was making a great impact in the world.

Project C.U.R.E. is the wonderful non-profit organization to provide medical/dental supplies and equipments to needy countries all over the world.

It is my privilege to volunteer there on my free time to help less fortunate people.

When we volunteered with Project C.U.R.E., we knew right away how grateful they were to have our help. Director of Operations there, Isabelle is so welcoming and friendly, and explained exactly what we needed to do to. It was well organized, and you truly feel like you are being part of an amazing thing they are doing. We organized donated medical supplies into bins to be shipped off to other countries where they are much needed and appreciated to be able to provide healthcare for their communities. Would definitely volunteer there again!

Years ago, I did a one-time volunteer session with the Cherry Creek Valley Rotary Club. It was such a good experience that I have recently been able to volunteer several hours a month. The training staff and daily supervisor are always extremely helpful in making the few hours rewarding. I have mostly done trash management at the initial sorting tables and transporting pallets to the warehouse shelves. The two hours go fast and help with keeping the process moving smoothly.

If you are looking for a fun and easy way to help people around the globe, Project Cure is the place to be. I love my weekly volunteer days at Project Cure. It’s a great way to learn new things while getting the satisfaction that you are making a difference in the world. Our team is friendly and helpful. Volunteering is flexible and the monthly lunch and learns are interesting as well.

I have been actively involved weekly with Project CURE in Denver, CO for the past five months. This has been the most rewarding 501 nonprofit global organization to work alongside.
I've received great training and feel valued every day I volunteer. I appreciate my manager, colleagues and office staff and look forward volunteering more once I retire.

This is an excellent charity which provides needed medical supplies and equipment to underdeveloped countries. Items range from beds, radiology and biomedical equipment including ventilators, infusion pumps, etc. The organization is almost all volunteer-run and welcomes individual volunteers and work groups. The regular volunteer have varied expertise and are always willing to welcome new folks! I have been volunteering for the past two years and consider it a wonderful way to use my health care expertise and make a difference globally. I have met wonderful people and am amazed at how work together to accomplish the organization's goals.

I AM A RETTIRED NURSE AND I VOLUNTEER AT THE MIDDLE-ATLANTIC PROJECT CURE CENTER. I DISPOSE OF ALL THE DRUGS THAT COME INTO OUR CENTER - CORRECTLY. I MARVEL AT WHAT THIS CENTER CAN ACCOMPLISH. IT IS MY WAY OF GIVING BACK. GAIL HUDSON

Project Cure is impeccably organized with knowledgeable help to help you do what you are asked to do correctly. Everything you need is right there. I never thought it would be so easy to serve parts of the world that need it so desperately.

Volunteering at Project CURE has been a wonderful experience. It helps healthcare providers in under resourced and war torn countries get the medical equipment, lab supplies, ambulatory supplies, surgical equipment, and PPE they need to help their communities. Each 40 foot container that is shipped from a warehouse can contain supplies worth $400,000-$500,000.

I have been volunteering at Project C.U.R.E. for over 5 years now. The mission of this organization is such a benefit to the world and I feel glad to have contributed to the mission by the giving of my time and effort. One of the great things about volunteering here ( besides helping those that desperately need medical supplies and equipment) is the people who also volunteer as well as those who are paid employees. It is like an extended family and very enjoyable to interact with everyone there.

I believe more people should volunteer at and be involved with Project C.U.R.E. They are doing so much for the world as they are distributing medical supplies to parts of the world that do not have access to them. As a volunteer, I was able to help organize some medical supplies, which though a simple task, helped this non-profit in their bigger mission: to help deliver health and hope to the world!

I started volunteering with this organization through my high school NHS. It was really fun and rewarding experience because it was different than the general local service opportunities I’d previously participated in. I actually applied for an internship and worked through the summer which was a really valuable experience. I love working there and loved meeting everybody who worked there because they all had such interesting stories. Overall I’d have to say this is by far the most rewarding and valuable community service organization I’ve ever worked with!

Very good project. Helps millions of people around the globe with everyday necessities and medical supplies.

My favorite thing about volunteering at Project Cure is the flexibility of hours and variety of work. A great place to spend your time if your are retired and looking to keep busy. There are many many things that need to be done. Depending on your skill level you can find the task that is right for you. You want to drive and pick up items, repair medical equipment, pre-sort donations and put up inventory in the warehouse. You can build medical kits, mentor other volunteers, or detailed sorting which includes code look ups, date checking, counting and bagging. There is quality control and boxing of large and small items for shipment. I have been volunteering for the last 8 years and find it very satisfying and a good use of my time.

Excellent organization! I fully recommend them for any group outreach event. I took a team of 30 middle school and 60 high school students to Project CURE’s Chicago warehouse and their team exceeded our expectations. They took time to explain to our students what the impact of their work was, walk with us through the whole process, and did the hard work to make sure it was logistically a success for us. I cannot recommend them enough!

Volunteering at Project Cure is very rewarding. You feel the sense of accomplishment, meet a great group of people and learn something new every time. There are a variety of roles to participate in based on your physical ability, knowledge, time to commit and preferences. All the work volunteers do is definitely appreciated.

I've been with project cure for over 5 years and have done more than 1,500 hours of service with them. Project cure is a no profit that is effective and driven to make the world a better place

My experience with Project C.U.R.E. has been in a volunteer capacity only. During this pandemic they have been able to keep the smaller regional hospitals around the perimeter of our state supplied with the PPE they need to keep things running. Even short-staffed they continue to amaze me with their unwavering commitment to their cause.

I have been a volunteer driver for Project C.U.R.E. For 12 years. Each week I drive a large box truck, with my friend Gary, to various hospitals, doctor’s offices and residential homes to pick up donated medical supplies and equipment.

It is very rewarding to see these items then loaded in large shipping containers, destined for those in need in third-world countries. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to serve in this capacity, especially in these pandemic times. It gives me, a person with no medical background, a chance to my part to address this emergency.

In addition, all the folks at Project C.U.R.E share the vision of bringing hope and health to those in need.

I really look forward to Tuesdays, when get to drive for Project C.U.R.E. I am proud to be a part of Project C.U.R.E.

I've been a volunteer with Project CURE for many years now. The staff and other volunteers are wonderful people and I've made so many great friendships. Everyone is there for a common cause and they bring a positive energy that makes volunteering there a rewarding experience.

We went to Project CURE to donate surgical supplies. We were offered a tour while there, and decided to start volunteering the next week. We go most Tuesdays and Thursdays and work with many great people. We have brought in our sister and her friend to also volunteer weekly. We are currently working on sending a container to the Philippines with their help. This is a great organization and we hope to volunteer for many more years!!

Project C.U.R.E is a great organization that helps provide medical equipment for thousands of people that need it in developing countries. It is a great place to volunteer with a wide variety of work for people with different skills.

GREAT mission, GREAT team! the CLOZTALK team is honored to call this org a partner & promote its good work!

I've been a Project C.U.R.E. volunteer for almost a year, and since the day I started there's been no looking back. As a former Peace Corps volunteer and insatiable traveler I was already attracted to their mission and vision, and I had always been impressed with their transparency and scores on Charity Navigator. As a volunteer I worked in their international headquarters until Covid-19 hit, and during that time it was clear that staffers live and breathe the mission (which speaks volumes from a volunteer standpoint).

I now volunteer remotely for their clinic programs, and I'm constantly finding new ways to engage with the organization. I've also heard firsthand from partners on the ground who hold Project C.U.R.E. in the highest esteem and affirm that every dollar spent enriches lives and health around the world. Being positioned "behind the curtain" of an organization can be eye-opening in more ways than one, but I've witnessed nothing but dedication, joy, and tenacity when it comes to getting the job done, especially when dealing with a pandemic. They will definitely be benefitting from my time, talent, and treasure for years to come!

I have volunteered for this organization for many years in different roles. I have traveled on mission trips, sorted in the warehouse, served on the board and collected supplies/equipment. The people of the organization could not be more giving and dedicated than they are. The organization is highly efficient and based so much on charity and volunteerism, that one feels secure in the knowledge that their time, energy and donations are going to the cause itself and not to a bureaucracy. A truly unique and rewarding organization to be a part of. Thank you Project C.U.R.E!

Project C.U.R.E. serves such an essential role, both state-side and around the globe. Their U.S. operations of reclaiming surplus medical supplies, inventoring and matching them to specific needs assessments, and managing hundreds of volunteers for their various warehouse locations in the states is staggering. The efficiency and effectiveness of this mission is beyond impressive.
Worldwide, Project C.U.R.E. plays a vital role in educating and equipping the under-served with life saving medical supplies and equipment.
I have traveled with them and enthusiastically donate to them - most recently shipping hospital beds to a sorely needed area.

I have volunteered with Project CURE in the sorting area for the past 5 years. I help go through donated boxes of medical supplies, sort them by category, then count, pack and inventory them. I have also volunteered a couple of times during their Super Sort Saturday events. I have also been a group leader and have organized sorting events for nurses and nursing students. As a nurse, working at Project CURE is a tangible way for me to help support nurses and caregivers throughout the world in providing care to patients.

Our Rotary club has worked with Project C.U.R.E. and we were very pleased with the experience. They are doing great work and helping people in many places.

I'm a retired Emergency Department nurse and my husband is a retired Physical Therapist. We have been volunteering for 20 years with Project C.U.R.E., more than half of that time 5 days a week. This an amazing organization that provides medical supplies to developing countries from the over abundance of our US supplies. We work along side a great group of other volunteers and the few wonderful paid staff to provide life-saving equipment and supplies to countries with very few resources to provide adequate medical services to their people. Project C.U.R.E. also conducts clinics to these countries, where individuals - both medical and non medical - can go to the country to provide clinics and serve along side the local medical staffs. With the thousands of volunteers across the nation, Project C.U.R.E. is able to operate on a 2 percent overhead. They have warehouses in 7 different cities - Denver, Nashville, Phoenix, Houston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Kansas City.

I knew very little about Project Cure when I asked them to help me get some me get some wheelchairs into Mexico. They were amazingly kind and supportive about my tiny problem, and I decided on the spot to become a volunteer. I have no medical experience, but they needed truck drivers. As a career people and project manager -- and a woman 5'2" tall -- this was a radical idea! But they encouraged me, and I soon learned how to back a big truck up to a dock, handle a pallet jack, and safely load a truck with all kinds of different loads. Everyone I work with is enthused, motivated, positive, and helpful. Each one of us seems to get a lot of satisfaction about accomplishing our little piece of the very complex set of steps it takes to get medical supplies to far-away countries. They treat their volunteers very well, with lots of gratitude and caring, including monthly meetings so we can keep up with the big picture of shipments made and supplies received all around the world. I'm very proud to be a Project Cure truck driver!

Project C.U.R.E. is a nonprofit that is designed around the volunteer experience and centered on volunteer input. There are nearly 1,000 volunteers for each single paid staff. This means a lot of opportunity for leadership roles in addition to regular volunteer opportunities. And Project C.U.R.E. operates large warehouses in seven U.S. cities.

The people that run and volunteer at Project Cure don't make a lot of noise or spend a lot of time bragging about what they do there. When at Project Cure, volunteers are immediately put to work sorting, cleaning, repairing and packing donated medical supplies that are then shipped to over 130 countries that have proven specific clinical needs. Even in America, when the pandemic reached us and PPE's were in short supply, Project Cure pivoted to providing these essentials back to medical centers, assisted living facilities, and other institutions needing them in Colorado and around the US. Volunteers, some from medical backgrounds, and many not, are incredibly dedicated to the work of Project Cure because while they are delivering tangible benefits to many thousands of people, they are also putting to meaningful purpose the surplus medical supplies of America. This is an organization it is a pleasure to be a part of and support.

I have volunteered at Project C.U.R.E. for over 18 years. Dedicated volunteers are the heart of the organization. When viewing news coverage of health care in developing countries it is easy to see what hospitals have benefitted from Project C.U.R.E. Some of our volunteers were former health care workers at clinics supported by the organization. They were impressed with the Project C.U.R.E. and have come to volunteer.

I've been volunteering at Project CURE for 13+ years. I'm a huge fan of what they do. People can leverage a couple of hours in their home town - doing good that impacts much of the developing world - delivering health, hope, and love. It is such a beautiful thing.

People are most vulnerable when they are sick. The reality is that many places don't even have even the most basic medical supplies. It's hard for many of us to imagine a doctor or nurse having to reuse needles or gloves because they have nothing; sadly, this happens every day. There are many great doctors and nurses that just need equipment and supplies to help them heal their patients. Project C.U.R.E. does due diligence by sending trained assessors to these hospitals to meet with the doctors to determine their true needs. Then Project C.U.R.E partners with U.S. hospitals to get donated medical supplies and equipment. They then organize and test it, doing it with thousands of volunteers. I have had the honor of being one of those volunteers. I have seen firsthand the lifesaving work this organization does. I have even traveled to a hospital in Mali carrying medical supplies, being able to experience it was life-changing. I don't know of any other organization that does so much with the funding they receive. Supporting Project C.U.R.E will truly save lives.

Project C.U.R.E. is an extraordinary nonprofit organization. It builds community to help community. The staff and legion of dedicated volunteers in Denver make a difference for people around the world. It is rewarding to pitch in, to come as a group of friends, colleagues, or family to join Project C.U.R.E in the embrace of wellbeing for all. Thank you for the opportunity to help.

Project C.U.R.E. is one of the finest nonprofits I have ever known. I have volunteered with them, and have the highest regard for their founder, Jim Jackson, and their President, Doug Jackson. They have made it one of the organizations that help people all over the world who really need their medical supplies and equipment. They have saved countless lives due to their outreach in such an intelligent and timely manner. They are just the very best.

Project C.U.R.E. is a non-profit company that helps underdeveloped countries by providing medical supplies, from bandaids to x-ray machines, at no cost to them. All of these supplies are donated, from corporations to the general public, and placed into warehouses (located in various states across the U.S.), in which the warehouse space is also donated to Project C.U.R.E. Amazing volunteers fill large shipping containers with all of these donations that are shipped to hospitals all over the world. Saving lives, one container, one donation, one hospital at a time!

Project C.U.R.E. really does life-changing work! Not only did they donate over $3,000,000 in PPE supplies to our frontlines and healthcare heroes during the COVID-19 crisis but they continue to send relief to developing countries in need. As a volunteer, getting to see this impact is incredible!! Knowing that when you load even one container with supplies they will be used to bring health to communities that need it is priceless. . . Truly one of the best organizations I know!

I like this non-profit for several reason. They use my money well - only 2% overhead. They ask people what they need (related to medical supplies) and than send those items if they have them vs dumping supplies.

With just a handful of staff and 15,000+ volunteers, Project C.U.R.E. makes a daily impact on the worlds healthcare in developing country's clinics and hospitals. Delivering much needed surplus medical supplies and technology is spreading health & hope throughout the world.
Volunteers are the 'lifeblood' of this amazing organization and giving YOUR time to sorting medical supplies in one of their many warehouses across the USA or volunteering in many other ways literally saves lives all over the globe! I can't think of a better place for your time, talent or treasure to be given.

This is a great organization and opportunity to volunteer. I would love to walk for Ghana on Saturday!

Travis and Charles of ProjectCURE visited the remotest corners of North Eastern Nigeria to assess equipment and supply needs of some 19 healthcare facilities. Their dedication to what they do, compassion in how they do it and sincerity of purpose while they do what they do is exemplary and awe inspiring. If charity is the act of putting others above self, for these gentlemen to leave the safety and comfort of their homes in the US and travel some 7,600 miles to an area publicized for Boko Haram insecurity is beyond charity...
... its a sacrifice.

I loved working with project CURE. I volunteered at the Phoenix warehouse and Travis was a fantastic leader. You can tell he truly believes in this company and their mission. It's amazing what gets done considering they run almost solely on volunteers. Thanks for letting us be a part of your organization!

It was 1987. My father, an extremely successful real estate developer in Colorado, had donated the vast majority of his wealth to charity. In an effort to give back on his knowledge and experience, he was working as a pro-bono economic consultant with the President of Brazil. His interpreter, a young medical student, took him to a small favela health clinic. There were only a rudimentary exam area and very limited supplies. It touched my father's heart and he returned to his home in the mountains outside of Denver, collected a garage full of medical supplies and delivered them to Brazil. Thirty-two years later, we have touched the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in over 135 countries. This month alone, we will deliver 22 semi-truck sized containers of medical relief to people who would not otherwise have a chance at health and life. And we have provided thousands of volunteer hours, trained hundreds of doctors and nurses and served scores of communities with hands-on healthcare. This organization is powered by over 30,000 volunteers, and reaches across the U.S.A. to provide for people around the world.

I volunteered 2 hours with Project C.U.R.E in their warehouse. I was overwhelmed with just how full the warehouse is of medical supplies! I know I was helping to make a difference around the world by giving two hours of my saturday to help sort medical donations.

While working as an intern at Project C.U.R.E., I was able to make an impact globally while still living and working domestically. I really felt my time here was well spent, and that my efforts directly contributed to the overall success and mission of the organization. The people who work at Project C.U.R.E. are hardworking, dedicated, and overall amazing people to be surrounded by on a daily basis.

The work this organization does is not only noble, but extremely important in helping alleviate problems of inadequate health care in developing countries. In my opinion, what sets Project C.U.R.E. apart from other international aid organizations is the method by which supplies are delivered. Unlike other organizations, Project C.U.R.E. ensures that only necessary and relevant medical supplies are delivered to a clinic site after a thorough, first hand assessment of the recipient institution. This means donated medical supplies are used as intended without the waste or fear of fund siphoning that can occur with generic monetary donations. Personally, I feel Project C.U.R.E. could serve as a template for similar organizations about how to maximize impact in the lives of others while minimizing the room for waste and error.

I am just finishing up a 10 week internship with PROJECT C.U.R.E. I was interested in this organization because of the unique way they combine green practices (reducing medical waste) and global healthcare. The staff here is welcoming, motivated and hard working. Everyone seems to work towards the same goal: Delivering life-giving medical supplies and equipment to resource-starved hospitals and clinics.
I really respect the process that they follow before they even ship the supplies over. Each clinic or hospital that request supplies is first evaluated by a volunteer, who travels to that hospital or clinic to see first-hand what the needs are. Then a report if filled and the needs are matched in the best way we can based on the supplies in the different warehouses. I appreciate that PROJECT C.U.R.E tries its best to be the best stewards with the resources they have been given.
I also LOVE the fact that with PROJECT C.U.R.E you really can "track" where your donation goes to. They always have several large containers headed to various countries around the world that you can pledge your money to.
