CaringBridge Inc. is a charitable 501(c)(3) non-profit organization[1] established in 1997[2] which allows people facing various medical conditions and their family and friends to communicate. CaringBridge is the first and most widely used global communication platform for supporting health journeys of any kind. It is dedicated to helping family and friends communicate and support caregivers, as well as the loved ones they are caring for, during a health journey. This is achieved through the use of free and ad-free personal CaringBridge pages. CaringBridge prioritizes privacy with no advertisements or selling of user data. People who are provided with an individual's personal website address (URL) and password can read updates on the individual's condition or post messages to the family as needed. CaringBridge is headquartered in Eagan, Minnesota. All CaringBridge sites are free and CaringBridge is funded by donor support.

Purpose

CaringBridge allows patients, caregivers, families, and friends to exchange information about a patient's medical condition on an ongoing basis.[3] The websites are designed to become conduits between patients, their families, friends, neighbors, and colleagues.[4] When visiting an individual’s website, visitors can post messages of support, donate to GoFundMe accounts, or send donations.
