We can't solve all the problems of the world. But working together, we can all make a difference Bob Macauley, AmeriCares Founder
Why Crowdrise?
Whether you're participating in a marathon or other athletic event, starting a birthday fundraiser, or creating a tribute, Crowdrise is a fun and easy way to create a personal fundraising page to ask friends and family to support AmeriCares.
How does this help AmeriCares?
When disasters like tornadoes, floods and famine strike or wherever people face daily health crises, the funds you raise on Crowdrise help us to send more aid quicker to help people who need it most. You can also join an existing AmeriCares fundraiser and support a fund that will make a difference in countless lives.
Team AmeriCares is running the ING New York City Marathon with a goal to raise $100,000 for deliveries of life-saving medical and disaster aid to help people in crisis.
Historically, for every $1 donated, we are able to deliver $20 in aid. If our team meets its goal, we can deliver up to $2 million in of humanitarian relief.
