Supported in Our Commitment to Health Equity

We are grateful for the support of many institutional and private donors. We are continuously innovating our approach to leveraging philanthropy for impact.

OUR APPROACH

Fundraising with Purpose.

CareMessage has raised over $43M in philanthropic capital since our founding in 2012. We are grateful for the support of many institutional and private donors who have funded our growth for over 10 years.

Strategic Shift

2024 was a pivotal year for CareMessage. This is the first year in the history of our organization where our monthly core operating expenses are covered by the revenue we generate from our customers.

Therefore, we are shifting our fundraising approach to focus on funding for exploratory and innovative projects. We welcome partnerships with individual and institutional donors who are interested in fueling the next big ideas in creating health equity for all.

AVAILABLE OPPORTUNITIES

Our latest projects, on the roadmap for 2025 and beyond.

Interoperability Fund: Accelerating Automations That Close Care Gaps

We are expanding the clinical automations that help safety net providers reach the right patients at the right time. Building on success with diabetes and referrals, this fund fuels R&D to launch the next wave of gaps in care workflows, starting with cancer screenings, and to unlock faster, more flexible data access through health data networks and partner platforms. The result is shorter build cycles, broader coverage across priority conditions, and scalable, automated outreach that reduces staff burden while improving outcomes for low income patients.

Social Drivers of Health Fund: Unlocking Food Security at Scale

Health does not start in the exam room. This fund backs our work to detect social needs in real time, beginning with food insecurity, using AI intent analysis across millions of patient messages. We are designing SMS first, multilingual workflows that identify acute and chronic need, connect patients to trusted community and digital food resources, and work toward closed loop confirmation that help was received. Your support accelerates an evidence based SDoH playbook that clinics can deploy at scale so families get the resources that make care plans possible.

Medicaid Redetermination and Benefits Access Fund: Keeping Coverage, Preserving Care

Losing coverage disrupts lives and overwhelms clinics. This fund powers a modular find, pre-screen, navigate layer that identifies at-risk patients, tracks renewal timelines, and guides families through forms and documentation with AI assisted messaging and secure image capture. We will streamline staff workflows, reduce avoidable churn, and pilot extensions into adjacent benefits like SNAP where it helps patients most. Backing this work keeps people connected to care and helps clinics do more with less.

Patient Impact and Continuity Fund: A Bridge for Clinics, Stability for Patients

Budget shocks should not sever the lifeline between patients and their care teams. This time bound fund provides targeted credits to high need, high potential clinics so they can maintain and deepen use of CareMessage during periods of volatility. Support prioritizes rural, Tribal, immigrant, and uninsured populations, protects gains in screenings, chronic care, and follow up, and enables clinics to expand to more patient tiers and integrations. The goal is simple, safeguard continuity now and set partners up for sustainable impact later.

AI and Data Fund: Intelligent Care, Built on Trusted Data

CareMessage is transforming how underserved communities access care by pairing advanced AI with a modern, trusted data foundation. Our AI and Data initiatives streamline patient communication, reduce staff burnout, and improve outcomes by deploying LLM powered workflows for real time responses, automated sentiment analysis, and intelligent categorization of patient needs, especially for people facing systemic barriers to care. We are building a centralized data function that expands and secures the data sources our safety net partners rely on, including deeper access to clinical data. This work includes a comprehensive governance framework to ensure data integrity across operations, stronger security and compliance, and the infrastructure needed to turn raw data into timely, equitable action at scale.
With your support, we will accelerate this combined AI and Data roadmap so clinics can deliver personalized, compassionate care to millions, confidently and efficiently. Together, we can bridge healthcare gaps and create lasting impact for underserved populations.
