Project C.U.R.E. began in a Colorado garage in 1987 with a simple conviction: no hospital anywhere should have to turn away a patient for lack of basic medical supplies. Nearly four decades later, our Denver warehouse is the heartbeat of a global mission that has delivered lifesaving medical supplies and equipment to hospitals in more than 135 countries. When you volunteer here, you stand at the origin of that mission, sorting, packing, and shipping hope to doctors and nurses who are waiting for it right now. Denver is where healing begins.
Our Denver warehouse welcomes individuals, families, corporate teams, faith groups, and student organizations every week. Volunteers sort donated medical supplies, prepare equipment for international shipment, and pack cargo containers bound for hospitals around the world. No medical background is required. Every hour you give becomes hands on care for a patient waiting somewhere in one of the more than 135 countries we serve.
Colorado hospitals, clinics, medical device companies, and individual providers can give surplus and unused medical supplies and equipment a second life. Every donation is inspected, inventoried, and matched to a hospital in the developing world that has requested exactly what you have to give. Contact our Denver team to arrange a pickup or drop off and turn Colorado surplus into global healing.
From a single Colorado garage in 1987 to a global operation serving hospitals in more than 135 countries, Denver has always been the heart of Project C.U.R.E. Our headquarters and flagship warehouse continue to power a mission built on Colorado generosity and the conviction that every human life is worth saving. Come see where it started and where it never stops.
