Hollstadt Consulting Offers $10,000 Matching Gift on November 12th & 13th to Double Donations to CaringBridge

BLOOMINGTON, Minn., Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CaringBridge, the no-cost, 501(c)(3) nonprofit health platform, is proud to announce its collaboration with Hollstadt Consulting, a woman-owned Twin Cities-based management consulting firm with more than 30 years' experience, together invite organizations and individuals to recognize and honor the vital role family caregivers play supporting loved ones on a health journey.

"CaringBridge is on a mission to add critical support to the lives of family caregivers who often juggle over 30 hours of unpaid caregiving every week, on top of a full-time job," said Tia Newcomer, CEO of CaringBridge. "Our research highlights that the acute feeling of overwhelm leads to isolation and loneliness that many caregivers experience. We're grateful for Hollstadt Consulting's generous two-day match on November 12^th and 13^th when every donation will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000."

Molly Jungbauer, CEO of Hollstadt Consulting, added, "Hollstadt is committed to fostering community and supporting caregivers. We're proud to match donations up to $10,000 to CaringBridge, an organization that helps families during challenging times. By using CaringBridge, caregivers can connect with their community, communicate easily, and receive support. Together, we can create a more compassionate environment for those navigating health journeys."

Last year, over 5.5 million messages of support were shared on CaringBridge pages, illustrating the power of community during difficult times. CaringBridge offers essential tools that allow family caregivers to share updates, coordinate care, and engage their communities in meaningful ways.

This November, during National Caregivers Month, join CaringBridge, Hollstadt, and thousands of CaringBridge users, to build bridges of care and communication and ensure the 53 million family caregivers in the U.S. don't go through a health journey alone.
