Welcome to Project C.U.R.E. — Nashville.

Project C.U.R.E. was founded in a Colorado garage in 1987 and has since expanded to seven distribution locations across the U.S., including Music City, USA in 1999. During that time, we’ve also grown to become the world’s largest distributor of donated medical supplies, equipment, and 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 — from volunteering to donating, you can help us make a difference. There are three ways you can help:

Donate to Project C.U.R.E Nashville

Volunteer With Us

Project C.U.R.E. Nashville needs passionate, mission-driven volunteers who are ready to roll up their sleeves and lend a helping hand to help sort and package medical supplies, stock donated medical supplies, prepare for shipments, and load containers. We welcome both individual and group volunteers.

Individual Volunteers

Registering to volunteer is simple. Just visit the Nashville Volunteer Hub, select a date to see if openings are available, then select “sign up.” It’s that easy. If you’ve never volunteered with us before, no worries, we’ve got an informative video and you’ll tour the warehouse. We won’t leave you hanging, we promise. Project C.U.R.E. requires that our volunteers who are 14-17 years old be accompanied by an adult. While no experience is necessary, if you have a specific skill set or area of interest, we have the following opportunities for you:

Sort Team Leaders:

You’ll help orient and supervise sorting groups. While medical experience is not required, it is recommended.

Sort Team Assistance:

If you’re 21 and older with good leadership and communication skills, this might be the job for you. You’ll get to assist Sort Team Leaders with large groups or manage a sub-group of volunteers in specific areas such as dual sort, plastics & drapes, as well as with packing boxes.

Warehouse Volunteers:

If you don’t mind some physical labor, your help is much-needed in the warehouse where you will help with inventory, pull loads for containers, and maintain the warehouse.

Surgical Instruments Team:

For those with OR Nurse or Tech experience, you can volunteer to help sort surgical instruments and prepare surgical instrument kits.

Biomedical/Laboratory Experts:

Calling all biomedical technicians and engineers or experts in electrical, mechanical, or computer engineering, we could use your experience to sort, organize, and test equipment to ensure that it’s functional then prepare the equipment and coordinate supplies for distribution. This function is critical for our ability to ship much-needed biomedical and surgical supplies to those who need them most.

Drivers:

If you’re 21 or older and don’t mind driving and a little heavy lifting, we could use your help picking up donated equipment and supplies (within a 60-mile radius) and delivering them to the Philadelphia Distribution Center. A CDL is a plus, but not required.

Group Volunteers

If you have a group ready to volunteer, just fill out the group registration form. It’s a fun way to serve and give back, and it’s a great team-building activity.

Donate Surplus Medical Supplies

To help provide the necessary medical equipment and supplies that doctors and nurses around the world need to save lives, we need surplus medical supplies donated from hospitals, manufacturers, medical facilities, and individuals. Learn more about how to donate supplies.

Make a Financial Contribution

While we need our volunteers and medical donations, financial donations make it possible to get our donated medical supplies from our warehouse into the hands of the healthcare workers who need it most abroad. Together, we will continue our mission to deliver health and hope to the world.
