How CaringCrowd Aligns With Johnson & Johnson’s ‘Credo’

CaringCrowd.org, by Johnson & Johnson Global Public Health, is a sponsor of the Your Mark on the World Center and GoodCrowd.info.

The Johnson & Johnson “credo” was written 75 years ago. Putting the needs of doctors, nurses and patients first has guided the company ever since.

CaringCrowd, sponsored by J&J, is an example of credo-thinking. John Brennick and Derek Fetzer, the co-founders of CaringCrowd–both J&J employees at the time–conceived of a platform where nonprofits, and individuals raising money for nonprofits, could advance their work.

J&J not only supports the platform without charge but often matches donations on the platform–which recently topped $1 million. Brennick says he hopes the second million dollars in donations will come much faster.
