Tulipe is an organization, located in France, that federates donations made by pharmaceutical companies to provide an emergency response to the needs of populations in distress as a result of acute health crises, natural disasters or conflicts. Its involvement takes the form of kits of medicines that can be provided in a very short time frame and that are adapted to needs in the field. With a view to good management of resources, any kits that are not used in emergency missions can be reallocated to other aid programs. In these specific cases, they are donated to duly selected French organizations that commit to respecting a set of requirements as defined by Tulipe.
In 1982, Tulipe was created in response to a genuine need: international humanitarian aid lacked the medicines and medical-surgical equipment it needed to perform its mission. By 1983, Tulipe became the official interface for companies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) working in the field in emergency situations. The medicines donated by Tulipe have benefited 50 countries around the world.

Project C.U.R.E. (Commission on Urgent Relief and Equipment) was founded in 1987 by James Jackson, who was working as an international economic consultant in developing countries when his work put him face to face with the needs of the sick and dying. During a trip to Brazil, Dr. Jackson visited a small clinic near Rio de Janeiro, where he learned that patients were often turned away due to a lack of basic medical supplies. Jackson was moved to action, making a promise to the clinic doctor that he would help provide relief to the people there.
Dr. Jackson returned to his home in Evergreen, Colorado, and with the assistance of friends in the medical industry collected $250,000 of medical supplies in his garage in just 30 days time. By personally paying the shipping expenses, Jackson was able to send an ocean-going cargo container carrying the donated supplies to Brazil. In 1997 James Jackson’s son, Dr. Douglas Jackson, became President & CEO of Project C.U.R.E..
From its humble beginnings in Colorado, Project C.U.R.E. has expanded to many other cities across the United States. Currently, Project C.U.R.E. maintains large distribution warehouses in Arizona, Colorado, Texas, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Tennessee. In addition, Project C.U.R.E. has established smaller collection centers several other states where donated items are gathered and then delivered to its warehouses. Project C.U.R.E. now collects medical donations in many U.S. cities.
Project C.U.R.E. has been an industry leader in developing new ways to allow the organization to provide the highest quality donated medical supplies and equipment possible to resource-limited communities across the globe, including efficient and accurate inventory systems, supply chain management, expert management of logistics and strong in-country relationships. Project C.U.R.E. also offers numerous domestic and international volunteer opportunities. Since its founding, Project C.U.R.E. has reached patients, families and children in 130 countries.
Today, Project C.U.R.E.’s work and mission are more important than ever, helping to bridge staggering health resource gaps in the developing world by empowering doctors and nurses with the tools they need to treat disease, deliver vaccines, perform life-changing surgeries and ensure safe childbirth. Through the compassion of Project C.U.R.E.’s supporters, hospitals, rural clinics and community health centers all over the world are able to offer quality care and critical medical services to their most vulnerable patients, especially women and young children. Thanks to the dedication of thousands of volunteers nationwide, two to three cargo containers of life-saving aid leave Project C.U.R.E.’s warehouses every week.
With the help of so many that have the same passion and commitment to helping those in need, Project C.U.R.E. continues to deliver health and hope to the world.

At Operation Smile we believe every child deserves exceptional surgical care. We believe all children deserve to be treated as if they were our own.
Operation Smile was founded in 1982 when Dr. William (Bill) P. Magee, Jr., a plastic surgeon, and his wife, Kathleen (Kathy), a nurse and clinical social worker, traveled to the Philippines with a group of medical volunteers to repair children’s cleft lips and cleft palates.
What they found was overwhelming. “People pushed their babies at us.” recalls Kathy. “They tugged at our sleeves with tears in their eyes and begged us to help their children.” In Naga City, approximately 300 families arrived hoping their children would receive surgery, but the team could only treat 40 children. As they prepared to leave, the Magees made a promise they would return to help more children.
They began soliciting donations of surgical equipment and supplies from manufacturers, threw themselves into grassroots fundraising and assembled a volunteer team of 18 doctors, nurses and technicians for their own medical mission to the Philippines. They helped approximately 100 more patients, but again, hundreds still waited.
They saw the need and Operation Smile was born.

To date, MedShare has donated over $200 million worth of life-saving medical supplies and equipment. The organization has diverted over 3 million cubic feet of usable medical products from local landfills.

MedShare has received medical supplies and equipment from hundreds of hospitals and corporations, and our product donor base is always growing.
Rather than simply shipping what is collected, MedShare uses a sophisticated inventory system that allows recipients to order exactly what they need. All supplies and equipment are evaluated to ensure that they are unopened, unexpired, and fully functioning before they are put into inventory. The Biomedical Equipment Training and Repair Service provides education around the world, training technicians, and end-users how to use and repair biomedical equipment in an under-resourced environment. MedShare’s goal is to strengthen health systems around the world in order to have a direct impact on health disparities and global public health. MedShare’s efforts are aligned around strategic health priorities established by the World Health Organization’s Sustainable Development Goals. These programs include Maternal Child Health, Infectious Disease Control and Prevention, Primary Care and Disaster Relief.
MedShare enjoys the support of an annual corps of 20,000 volunteers who have sorted and repackaged over 6,000 tons of medical supplies and equipment. Partnerships with thousands of individuals, major corporations, foundations, and other nonprofit organizations are vital to MedShare’s ability to achieve its mission.
Charity Navigator has awarded MedShare its four-star rating for twelve consecutive years due to the organization’s careful use of donor investments in its mission.

Medical Teams International is a faith-based, humanitarian aid organization that was established in 1979. Our mission is “Daring to love like Jesus, we boldly break barriers to health and restore wholeness in a hurting world.” Because every person matters, to God and to us.
We care for the hurting in frontline clinics, refugee camps, and remote villages. From delivering community-based health care for displaced Syrians in Lebanon, to strengthening community and health systems in rural Guatemala, to conducting screenings of new arrivals at country border crossings and in refugee camps during the COVID-19 pandemic, Medical Teams provides life-saving health care services and other support in emergency and refugee contexts. We also have a domestic program providing urgent dental care and other health services to our neighbors in need in Washington and Oregon.
We use both international and local volunteers to extend the impact of our staff and programs. We also leverage the strengths and capacities of others through a broad network of corporate, government, and non-profit partners. We work alongside volunteers to sort, pack, and ship donated medical supplies to those in need both here in the U.S. and across the globe.
What We Do
Direct Medical Care – We provide direct health services (primary and emergency) to people who live in difficult circumstances, have limited resources, and lack access to care, primarily refugees or those affected by disasters. These services are provided by professionally trained staff or volunteers. In the U.S. Pacific Northwest, we provide free oral health services to people with no access to dental care through our mobile health program, as well as COVID-19 testing, vaccinations, and other medical screenings.
Health System Strengthening – Health systems are those organizations, people, and actions whose primary intent is to promote, restore, or maintain health for local populations. We strengthen health systems by supporting the promotion, restoration, or maintenance of service delivery, health workforce training, information services, access to medical products (vaccines, technologies, and other supplies), and leadership/governance. We work directly with health care providers, facilities, and agencies to provide this support effectively.
Community Empowerment – We work in partnership with communities to ensure our interventions have sustainable long-term impacts. Rather than relying solely on health systems, we empower communities with knowledge and practices to take charge of their own health, reduce preventable illnesses, and improve their quality of life.
Where We Work
Bangladesh, Colombia, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Lebanon, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda and the United States (Oregon and Washington)

Anera, which has no political or religious affiliation, provides humanitarian assistance and sustainable development to advance the well-being of refugees and other vulnerable communities in the Middle East.
In Palestine, restrictions on movement and imports, imposed by years of occupation, challenge the medical system to provide up-to-date care. Hospitals and clinics suffer chronic shortages of critical medicines to respond to their patients’ needs. The blockade of Gaza, since 2007, has also severely limited the import of critical humanitarian goods. In Lebanon, Palestinian refugees and poor Lebanese communities face challenges from terrible housing conditions to high unemployment. The situation worsened when the Syrian civil brought a million new refugees into the country.
Anera’s precise and logistical coordination of shipments, efficient management of warehouse space, pharmacological expertise, decades of trusted relationships, intimate knowledge of international shipping restrictions/guidelines, combine to ensure that life-saving supplies are put to use quickly. Since 1968, Anera has delivered $600+ million worth of medical and relief supplies to local non-profits and medical facilities that serve the most disadvantaged populations in the West Bank, Gaza, Jordan and Lebanon.
