During 2004, CURE funded several community-based projects. In collaboration with the Imperial Valley Center for New Frontiers, CURE funded the public pool in Calexico, which otherwise would have been closed due to municipal budget cuts.

CURE also has funded an effort by the National Farmworkers Council to assist individuals on fixed incomes to obtain reductions in electricity costs and to weatherize their homes. The Imperial Valley has the highest temperatures in the United States during summer months and some citizens pay over 33% of their income on air conditioning.

Finally, CURE assisted the City of Calexico in purchasing a surplus Armory for conversion into a multi-generational recreational and community center. CURE continues to support fundraising efforts to convert the Armory to a multi-generational center to promote leadership, parenting and recreation courses.
