C.U.R.E. Kits | Medical Kits for Missions
C.U.R.E. Kits are medical kits that equip doctors, nurses, and mission travelers with essential supplies for medical missions. Our medical kits weigh less than 50lbs and can be checked as luggage on your flight.
C.U.R.E. Kits are prepacked with wound dressings, sutures, sterile gloves, hemostats, stethoscopes, bandages, and other critical care items that have been used to care for people in over one hundred countries.
These critical supplies can also be carried internationally by non-medical professionals and delivered to local clinics and hospitals as an impactful donation.
The cost of a C.U.R.E. Kit is a $250 donation and valued at more than $2,000.
After your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. Your Kit will be shipped to the US Address of your choice or may be picked up at any of our 7 warehouses throughout the country. Project C.U.R.E. will send a packing list along with proper documentation to navigate customs. Please allow 2-3 weeks for delivery. If needed sooner, please contact us at [email protected].

How is the Kit shipped to me?
We received a donation of thousands of CHASE Cash Bags years ago and to steward our resources, C.U.R.E. Kits are packed in these sturdy green duffels and then packed in a large box and shipped to you. The two bags weigh 23 pounds each and are checked as two separate pieces of luggage.
Why was my C.U.R.E. Kit not packed in the CHASE Bag?
We are nearing the end of the Cash Bags that were donated to us years ago. We are procuring a solution for C.U.R.E. Kits to be consistently packed in, and then standardize the container throughout all seven of Project C.U.R.E.’s warehouses.
In the meantime, C.U.R.E. Kits that originate from one of our warehouses outside of Colorado are being packed in one bag that weighs 46lbs with the dimensions, 36” X 15” x 12”.

Each kit includes an inventory list of the items contained inside.

Each kit includes a Declaration of Donation letter and an inventory list of the items contained inside.
We currently offer the letter in English, Spanish, French, and Dutch and will be adding other languages soon. It is your responsibility to inquire about the current customs regulations for your destination. Some countries may require prior approval of the medicines list or have restrictions on product dating.
