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
