Project C.U.R.E. was founded in a Colorado garage in 1987 and has grown to become a vital part of the mile-high community and economy. We’ve also become the world’s largest distributor of donated medical supplies, equipment, and international medical relief services to doctors and nurses in more than 135 countries. This is no easy feat. The only way we can make it happen is through the help and support of those also willing to get involved.
