The CDC Foundation, a nonprofit organization, helps serve ALL OF US, all of the many needs that arise during an emergency response that the federally-funded CDC cannot cover.

Your dollars will:

• help communities prevent, detect and respond to COVID-19

• increase laboratory capacity to keep pace with increasing demand for staffing, specialized equipment and supplies, specimen collection and delivery

• deploy emergency staffing with the skills required to meet the needs on the front lines at the state and local level

• provide support to vulnerable communities, including people with underlying health conditions and those who are homeless

• develop health education and awareness campaigns to combat misinformation, advance prevention and reduce stigma

• boost clinical tools to improve health outcomes

• develop new technology tools and update existing disease surveillance systems

• build capacity and infrastructure for global response efforts and other immediate needs as they evolve
