Project C.U.R.E.
Modernizing humanitarian operations to save more lives
$
in gifts-in-kind, a $7M increase
Project C.U.R.E. directly impacts human lives by delivering lifesaving resources to hospitals and clinics in underserved communities around the globe. Its work with Wipfli has resulted in data-driven process improvement using proprietary AI tools and connected, efficient operations within the Microsoft ecosystem. Project C.U.R.E. is already deploying its increased capabilities to spread more hope and healing across 135+ countries.
The Challenge
Project C.U.R.E. has dedicated itself to increasing the availability of critical medical supplies to under-resourced populations worldwide. The organization recognized that modernizing its systems and improving processes was essential to expanding its reach while preserving the heart of its mission-driven approach. It needed a partner to help scale the deployment of customized cargo container shipments and amplify the impact of its dedicated volunteer base and lean internal teams. Project C.U.R.E. selected Wipfli, a designated Microsoft Solutions Partner, and gained not only advanced technical solutions but also a strategic ally who went above and beyond to match Project C.U.R.E.’s passion and impact.
The Solution
In the first 90 days, Wipfli remedied urgent issues and stabilized operations. The team then led a human-centered approach to learning the workflows, roles and needs of all key personas: operations, donor relations, volunteers, leadership and more. These learnings shaped the creation and execution of a strategic roadmap with technology and process recommendations. Microsoft products included Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Power BI, Business Central and Azure. Wipfli also built a customized AI-enabled Copilot solution to move from labor-intensive data gathering to automated analysis. Most recently, the team created and rolled out a new fundraising and operational management app, CURE Compass, which empowers Project C.U.R.E. to manage its fundraising, Cargo, GIK (gifts-in-kind) and other efforts in a single platform.
Thanks to Wipfli, our systems work for us, instead of us working for our systems. They’ve transformed how we operate with new ideas, Microsoft stack expertise and true belief in Project C.U.R.E.’s mission.
The results
Project C.U.R.E. measurably advanced its ability to strengthen healthcare for global, underserved communities. With Wipfli it:
