Caringbridge (the organization) is a global nonprofit social network dedicated to helping family and friends communicate with and support loved ones during a health journey. Thanks to our compassionate donors, anyone, anywhere can create a free personal website to easily share updates and receive the love and strength they need from their community during an illness or injury. A free personal website can be started at any time to share important information quickly during any type of health crisis. Benefits of use: one place to do it all: a free Caringbridge website has all the tools needed to keep family and friends updated during a difficult time. Because Caringbridge is a nonprofit, we put our users' needs first. Through a Caringbridge website users can: share news and updates with everyone at the same time, communicate in a private, ad-free place, activate friends and family and coordinate help, and receive emotional strength and support.save time and reduce stress: a health crisis throws everything into chaos. Because family and friends care, questions and phone calls won't stop and stuff begins to pile up. A Caringbridge website gives people one centralized, private place to share health updates and request the help that may be needed.dedicated to health: a personal Caringbridge website is a place to share health updates, photos and videos with the people who care about a loved one's health journey. Private, protected and ad-free: our users are in control of their privacy settings, so any given website is as private or public as the author/user wants it to be. Personal data is never sold, and there is no outside advertising, so the focus is always on the health journey, not the latest advertisement. Coordinate help: family and friends want to know how they can help. This is the place to tell them. Let them know what is needed, when visitors are welcome, hospital or facility information and how to contact the affected people. Caringbridge websites can be linked with popular tools such as personal fundraisers or calendars. Since june 7, 1997, nearly 950,000 Caringbridge websites have been created. Combined, they have received 2.545 billion visits. Today, a new Caringbridge website is created every 12 minutes for someone experiencing a health crisis.
