"A PROJECT C.U.R.E. trip gives you the ability to dig below the surface in a country - to understand a little bit what life is like for the people who live there and to help them live better." -- Dr. Lisa Latts, Vice President, Programs in Clinical Excellence, Anthem Blue Cross |

Participants visit both hospitals and clinics on both ends of PROJECT C.U.R.E.’s
work – prospective recipient facilities, where teams perform needs
assessments, and others where the organization has already delivered
supplies and equipment.
Coupling these experiences with the chance to
meet senior government and corporate officials, dine with heads of
state, and gain access to cultural and environmental areas not open to
the general public, PROJECT C.U.R.E.
PhilanthroTravel participants receive exposure to new and fascinating
cultures in ways not afforded by other travel opportunities.

"Visiting
a warehouse in suburban Denver filled with medical supplies and
equipment is one thing, but, actually going to the hospital where the
supplies are being used is unbelievable."
-- Elaine Gantz Berman,
Colorado Board of Education
This trip builds on PROJECT C.U.R.E.'s relationship with the First Lady of Belize, Ms. Kim Simplis Barrow, which began during the 2008 hurricane season when thousands were displaced and crops, homes, schools, and business were heavily damaged or destroyed. Your participation in this trip will enable PROJECT C.U.R.E. to continue its work enhancing Belize's healthcare system with the delivery of approximately $400,000 in medical supplies and equipment.
