Please help us reach our $1 million dollar goal by making a small donation today. Every dollar raised helps NYC dementia caregivers care with confidence. Thank you!

At CaringKind, we know that every individual and family affected by a dementia diagnosis has unique challenges that require personal attention.

In 2018, CaringKind’s team of caring professionals was committed to providing world class service to the 3,000 clients we served through the program. Our social work staff listened to the concerns of caregivers, met with them in person, and helped them develop a care plan that addressed their individual needs.

At CaringKind, we also know we wouldn't be able to do any of this without your support. Donate to our Year-End campaign today and help ensure that we can continue to help NYC dementia caregivers in 2019. Thank you!
