- Are you still donating $10 for each ribbon displayed?

No. We’ve reached our goal of $10,000, but are keenly interested in spreading Alzheimer’s awareness through our web ribbon.
How did the $10 donation work?
Caring.com contributed $10 to the Alzheimer’s Association for each unique website or blog, up to 1,000 unique websites or blogs, that displayed the ribbon in accordance with our terms of use.
How did you validate that the ribbon was displayed?
Caring.com creates a unique tracking number for each ribbon that is created. A user must paste the ribbon on their website and click through on the ribbon at least once for us to register that the ribbon is active.
