Health Comes First
Our health is our most valuable asset. When we have a healthy mind and body, we can easily do our daily chores, spend quality time with loved ones, focus on achieving a higher purpose in life, develop fulfilling hobbies, and travel to places we want to visit. Health brings us so much joy in life, but for many people, maintaining good health isn't as easy.
People who suffer from long term physical or mental diseases can experience not only the physical or mental torment and daily inconvenience, but also large medical bills, a compromised quality of life and escalating health conditions. To alleviate their burdens, each month Charitocracy and our amazing donors hand select charities that support health-related causes including physical or mental disabilities, cerebral palsy, cancer, cyclic fibrosis, epilepsy, suicide prevention, mental health therapy services, healthcare, and medical research into treatments and cures. By the end of the month, through voting we select one charity out of all the nominated charities from all 12 categories to which we donate our monthly pooled donations. Chances are, your favorite charities will win Charitocracy's monthly grant!
Take a look at the list below of currently nominated health charities. See one that inspires you? If not, you can also nominate your favorite health charity to add to our voting list! Join us now and empower a cause you care about! Also, feel free to check out our past health charity winners or the other charitable causes Charitocracy supports.
