CaringBridge Launches 2023 Spring Giving Campaign
Eagan, Minn. (March 13, 2023) – CaringBridge is launching a spring giving campaign March 14 through March 30 where CaringBridge donors can help continue spreading hope, healing and connection through a financial gift.
The campaign includes generous matching gifts donated by anonymous friends and totaling $25,000. Donations received on March 14-15 and March 29-30 will be matched up to $10,000. Donations received on March 21 and 22 will also be matched up to $5,000.
While enduring a health challenge, patients and their family caregivers need to feel supported. Families appreciate the ability to quickly reach out to loved ones, such as the family of Abby Scott. Abby’s family set up her free CaringBridge site in 2009, where she has received support throughout her journey with Congenital Femoral Deficiency. “CaringBridge has provided a huge community for my family and I to get through [my health journey,]” Abby shared.
“Anyone handing a significant health challenge can benefit from support and community,” says Tia Newcomer, CaringBridge CEO. “The past few years have yet again demonstrated the value of health providers and caregivers. To keep providing care, family caregivers need to know they are supported. They can access community through our free website. We are grateful for our generous donors and supporters who understand the need and whose donations allow our website to provide an accessible support network to thousands of families.”
A donor-supported nonprofit, CaringBridge has provided a platform for over 300,000 visits a day to easily connect with family and friends during health journeys. Each donation supporting the operation of thousands of ad-free, secure, privacy-protected pages where millions of people connect with loved ones for the emotional and financial support they need.
