Why partner with CaringBridge
CaringBridge is a nonprofit, no-cost health platform for family caregivers and the loved ones they support on a health journey. We make it easy to share updates with everyone all at the same time and organize and activate a support network. We believe healing happens when we're surrounded by loved ones.
Since 1997, we've supported people to simplify group communication and share health information on their CaringBridge that's free from ads, private, and easy to use. All our features, from a personal fundraiser tool to meal preparation and delivery, are designed to easily ask for and receive support. Our goal is to add more tools to ease the burdens of the family caregiver and care recipient. It’s easy to activate a support community on CaringBridge.
