OUR IMPACT

Measuring and Evaluating Our Results

Beyond simply reporting the number of Cargo containers delivered or Clinics conducted, Project C.U.R.E. measures impact of our work through a committed process of measurement and evaluation. This, together with stories from the field, help us in assessing the success of our programs. Data is collected both at the beginning a project and then compared against the results afterward. Based on recipient hospital reported visits at locations that Project C.U.R.E. has assessed, it is estimated that each Cargo container impacts over 30,000 people annually.

Steps in our Measurement Process

Needs Assessment:

The first step in measuring our effectiveness is conducting an on-site Needs Assessment study. The Needs Assessment is conducted before shipping a Cargo container to the hospital or clinic.

Our Needs Assessment is a foundational starting point, and is conducted by a representative from Project C.U.R.E. who travels to the recipient facility to meet with administrators, physicians, nurses and other medical practitioners to determine the specific needs of the hospital or clinic. The findings from the Needs Assessment are used to establish a baseline for measurement, and guide Project C.U.R.E. in planning the Cargo delivery and potential C.U.R.E. Clinic or College programs.

Impact Evaluation Survey:

The second step in the measurement process is the completion of an Impact Evaluation Survey. Approximately six months following a Cargo container delivery, the hospital or clinic completes an Impact Evaluation Survey.

The questions are designed to measure how the arrival of the Cargo container improved the function of the hospital and the health outcomes to the patient. Surveys are tallied and analyzed to determine both shortfalls and best practices.

Outcomes Assessment:

For larger, multi-container deliveries, Project C.U.R.E. conducts an on-site Outcomes Assessment. Similar to a Needs Assessment, the Outcomes Assessment is conducted by a Project C.U.R.E. representative traveling to the recipient hospital or clinics to conduct interviews, take photos and gather data following the arrival of C.U.R.E. Cargo containers.

Likewise, during both C.U.R.E. Clinic and College programs, data is collected on each patient diagnosed and treated, as well as outcomes over time, as available.

How We Make a Difference

Project C.U.R.E. makes a difference by providing critical resources to healthcare providers who face incredible obstacles in the mission to care for their patients. Poverty continues to plague much of the world. The lack of resources disproportionately impacts women, particularly at childbirth. Disasters, war and violence add to a tragically difficult environment. Project C.U.R.E. intervenes in these situations by donating medical aid, assistance and training.
