Care for non-profits

Since 1998 Care2 has registered over six million members and has partnered with over 150 non-profit organizations to create a progressive online community. The goal, simply put, is to make the world a better place and Care 2 has made advancements doing this by connecting people who care with organizations, responsible businesses, and individuals getting results. The Care2 site was created to host a forum for connecting and facilitating the efforts of those who care through user-friendly action-oriented online tools and resources.

Care2 powers and collaborates with three additional sites that work with the same ideals in mind. Frogloop.com provides online resources for non-profits such as a discussion board and a job board. Frogloop also provides information on events, conferences, and book reviews. MovingIdeas.org is an interactive policy site that allows members to post blogs and take action on current political policy related issues. The third site powered by Care2 hosts one of the main tools Care2 provides. ThePetitionSite.com is used to create, publish and promote petitions on any topic, for free! These sites allow members to pool their resources and promote lasting change via cause-driven education, activism and fundraising campaigns.

The interactive component that Care2 provides allows users to stay abreast of political issues that are important to them. They can create a petition that supports their views and follow legislation through Congress.
