CAREGIFTED was established by poet Heather McHugh to benefit long-term full-time caregivers of disabled family members, with all-expense-paid vacations including transportation, lodging, food and personal concierge services. Awardees are chosen for their need of rest and artistic stimulation; as host, McHugh offers not only chauffeur and guide services, but company and conversation as desired. More important, caregivers may choose to record their experiences and understandings, from which McHugh will craft an artist's impression in their honor.
