Your charitable donations to The Carter Center — unique among world aid agencies — combined with the generosity of others, are making a difference in the lives of millions around the world through programs that help people enjoy good health and live in peace.

Carter Center charitable donations are alleviating suffering and advancing human rights worldwide by:

• Leading the worldwide campaign in Guinea worm disease eradication that has reduced this horrible disease by 99.5 percent in Africa and Asia.
• Monitoring more than 92 elections in more than 37 countries including Indonesia, South Sudan, Nepal, and Egypt.
• Creating new avenues for peace in Liberia, the Middle East, Sudan, Uganda, and Venezuela.
• Providing health education and more than 150 million drug treatments to fight river blindness in Africa and Latin America.

President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda and President Omar Al Bashir of Sudan following the signing of the Sudan-Uganda Peace Agreement, which was negotiated with the help of former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and The Carter Center.

• Working to erase the stigma against mental illnesses in the United States and abroad.
• Brokering a "Guinea worm" cease-fire in Sudan, the first and longest-observed humanitarian cease-fire in history.
• Teaching more than 1 million farmers in Africa to double, triple, or quadruple their yields of maize, wheat, corn, and other grains.
• Assisting in the elimination and control of other diseases, such as lymphatic filariasis, also known as elephantiasis; schistosomiasis; and trachoma, the world's leading cause of preventable blindness.
• Strengthening local election processes in China and promoting free and fair elections through our China Program.

Your $30 donation can pay for 100 portable pipe filters to enable nomadic populations to filter their drinking water and help eliminate Guinea worm disease. Your donation of $120 can pay for the printing of 20 training modules, which will be used to instruct health workers on a public health issue of importance to the people of Ethiopia. A donation of $1,000 can support the participation of an experienced international election observer in one of the many critical elections that the Center observes each year. Your donation of $3,000 can provide the opportunity for a student to gain valuable work experience as a Carter Center intern for one semester.

Your donation of $2,500-$3,500 can provide a case containment center such as this one, which is used to aid in the care and treatment of patients with Guinea worm disease. Your donation of $15,000 can provide support to a Rosalynn Carter Mental Health Journalist. These journalists study a mental health topic and report accurately about it in the media as part of our effort to reduce the stigma faced by people suffering from mental illnesses.   These price ranges are examples of the types of services that your donation can help provide but do not represent the purchase value of goods and services linked to your contribution.
