CARINGBRIDGE

Our Mission

From the launch of the very first CaringBridge page 26+ years ago, we’ve been working toward a single vision: a world where no one goes through a health journey alone. 

In order to turn this vision into reality, we’ve made it our mission to:

Build bridges of care and communication providing love and support on a health journey.

Our Impact

Feelings of being overwhelmed, isolated and lonely are common among family caregivers and the loved ones they support while on a health journey. CaringBridge helps people come together in support of healing.

A nonprofit, no-cost health communication platform, CaringBridge is a dedicated space to share health updates with everyone at once, eliminating the need for multiple text messages, emails, and phone calls. We make it easy to organize and activate a support network with just a few straightforward steps. We believe healing happens when surrounded by loved ones, and CaringBridge provides simplified connection and community when it matters most.

CaringBridge is a leading provider of connection and support for millions of family caregivers and their loved ones around the world, helping to overcome the caregiver’s challenge.
