The Carter Center

Dear John,

Many of our volunteers come from the very villages that suffer from the diseases we fight. These courageous people spend long hours traveling dirt roads, patiently teaching the benefits of good hygiene and modern medicine. They distribute antibiotics, and some are trained to perform pain-relieving eye surgeries.

Today, we are in the final stretches of ending Guinea worm disease throughout the world and stopping river blindness and malaria in the Americas. By making a gift now, before the year is over, you can help keep this progress on track.

Please make a special, year-end gift now.
Together, we can finish this important work »

Our Guinea Worm Eradication Program started with an estimated 3.5 million cases in 1985. We may have as few as 14 cases this year in just four countries in Africa. We also are closing in on the last cases of river blindness deep in the Amazon and malaria in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

Ending these millennia-old diseases requires dedication and determination from our staff and volunteers and from caring individuals like you. Your gift will help empower some of the world’s poorest people with the resources for treatment, surveillance, and preventive education. And you’ll support our peace programs staff as they help resolve armed conflict — a serious obstacle to seeking out the last cases of Guinea worm disease.

Please, before this year ends, will you make a gift to fight disease and bring peace into the lives of vulnerable people? Thank you for your generosity.

Sincerely,

Jimmy Carter
Co-Founder and Trustee
