CaringBridge is a no-cost, 501(c)(3) nonprofit health platform that surrounds family caregivers with support while they care for a loved one on a health journey. A donor-supported nonprofit founded in 1997, the organization offers tools to share and document a health journey, simplify care coordination, and connect caregivers with a supportive community. CaringBridge addresses feelings of overwhelm, isolation, and loneliness by improving emotional health and social connectedness, helping people come together in support of healing. With over 300,000 people on the platform every day sending or receiving support, there are over 1,600 messages of love, hope, and compassion posted every hour. And every 12 minutes a new CaringBridge page is started. The CaringBridge community includes all 50 states and more than 242 countries around the world. To learn more visit www.caringbridge.org.

CaringBridge allowed me to stay in touch with all the right people during my son's brain injury recovery. To update people individually would've been not only exhausting but impossible. The support and ideas I received from a wide circle of friends helped immeasurably.
An outstanding app.

Staying connected

I love that I was offered to share in my friends health journey. Even though it will be tough. Privacy is important. Staying connected is so important.
Exceptional way to communicate
Tackling cancer
This app and CaringBridge website has been such a huge help in communicating our cancer treatment journey with friends and family around the world. It is very user friendly and without pressure to donate or annoying advertisements. Truly a gift to those of us who are facing some very dark times. Connecting with others to help support us has been a huge boost to mental health.
