Our Campaign Goal |
Celebrate our first decade of impact and jumpstart our second by raising one million dollars by the end of 2025. This funding will power our next decade of improving the lives of at least 1 million caregiving men by 2035.
Campaign Background
Recently, I heard someone say, “If you've met one caregiver, you've met one caregiver.” Because no two stories are the same, I wholeheartedly agree.
As of December 4th, 2024, we have been encouraging caregivers for a decade. And while no two caregiving stories are remotely identical, there are three things that every single caregiver we’ve served has had in common: They weren’t paid one penny for their care, they were all afraid, and they all had the courage to ask for help. Most of them live in the Twin Cities of Minnesota, and most of them are caring for a part ner with cancer. This was the story for all three of the founders of Jack’s Caregiver Coalition.
Our One Million Strong campaign goal is to celebrate our first decade of impact and jumpstart our second by raising one million dollars by the end of 2025. This funding will power our next decade of improving the lives of at least 1 million caregiving men by 2035.
It took us 8 years to raise our first million dollars in revenue. Setting the ambitious goal of raising one million in one year may seem ludicrous to some. But I see it as another way of demonstrating our commitment to our audacious 10-year goal of improving the lives of one million men.
To further demonstrate our commitment to this goal, starting today, we are emerging from our local roots and offering our services to any unpaid guy caregiver in the United States or Canada.
To get a sense of how we currently support men who don’t reside in our neck of the woods, I hope you will enjoy this story about Chris Burke. Chris, a former caregiver from Virginia, shares how Jack’s Caregiver Coalition provided crucial support throughout his caregiving journey.
Please consider making a tribute donation in honor of the first guy caregiver who comes to mind. Make sure you tell him what you’ve done and that you fully appreciate that asking for help is a bold move. That little bit of encouragement could have an enormous impact on his life and the lives of the people he is caring for.
