In a world where access to essential medical equipment is often a luxury, Project C.U.R.E. continues to champion the cause of health equity. Thanks to a remarkable contribution from Sooner Logistics, this mission is reaching new heights. The California-based logistics company donated over 9,000 crutches, ensuring that individuals worldwide regain mobility and independence.
Mobility aids like crutches can be life-changing for individuals recovering from injuries or managing chronic physical challenges. In underserved communities, however, these tools are often out of reach. With this donation, Project C.U.R.E. is equipped to provide thousands of individuals with the support they need to navigate daily life with dignity and ease.
For nearly four decades, Project C.U.R.E. has been the largest distributor of donated medical equipment worldwide. Collaborations like this one with Sooner Logistics are integral to the organization’s success. These 9,000 crutches will be distributed to communities that have undergone thorough needs assessments, ensuring they reach those who need them most.
Janet Thomason, Director of National Procurement at Project C.U.R.E., expressed gratitude: “Thousands will be impacted by Sooner’s generosity. We thank the McLaughlin family and their team for their incredible support.”
The impact of these crutches extends beyond individuals—they benefit entire communities. For families, seeing loved ones regain independence brings hope. In some cases, mobility can open doors to employment, education, and social opportunities, fostering long-term, positive change.
Sooner Logistics’ donation also demonstrates how logistics companies can play a vital role in delivering not only goods but also goodwill. By leveraging their resources and expertise, they make a tangible difference in the lives of many.
Project C.U.R.E.’s mission is made possible by partnerships and the dedication of supporters worldwide. If you’re inspired by stories like this, there are many ways to get involved.
