Nominate a Caregiver of the Month
More than 65 million people are providing care for a chronically ill, disabled or aged spouse, child, parent, relative or friend, and the majority of these caregivers are women. If you or someone you know is a caregiver and deserves to be recognized for tireless efforts and inspirational ways, let us hear about it. Each month HealthyWomen will choose one nominated caregiver to be featured as our Caregiver of the Month. The caregiver will be honored on HealthyWomen.org and will be awarded a $75 American Express gift card to give herself some much-deserved rest and relaxation.
And since we at HealthyWomen think every caregiver deserves recognition, we'll award each nominee with a HealthyWomen Honored Caregiver badge that she can use for her social media profile or anywhere she can be recognized for her efforts.
*If you are nominating yourself by submitting your caregiver story to HealthyWomen.org, you acknowledge that you are giving HealthyWomen permission to use both your story and your photo and certify that you have the rights to share them.
*If you are nominating a friend, family member or colleague and that person is selected as Caregiver of the Month, we will need that person's permission to use the story you have submitted and a photo of her, prior to announcing the selection.
Your entry will be reviewed by HealthyWomen staff members. If you are chosen, you will be notified by e-mail within the first week of the month after you entered.
