CVC 2011 - A Good Start for First Involvement

Commonwealth of Virginia Campaign (CVC) 2011 Update This is a special e-mail for Virginia State Employees who offered support through payroll deduction.  However, it is indeed worth sharing with all friends who have shown their devotion and interest in this charity, which is now moving into its fourth year.  Interfaith Humanitarian Sanctum, Inc. has CVC code 3648. From date of application in April 2011 to participate in CVC, and enrollment by employees in October 2011, it has taken until April of 2012 to receive notice of how many participated and made contributions to IHS. Notice arrived only this past week that twenty (20) Charlottesville state employees enrolled to donate a total of $4,062.00 over this year.     It was an important start for a first time All volunteer charity IHS is dedicated to indigent patients and caregivers who are served at the University of Virginia Medical Center. Not well known even in the hospital itself, with very little opportunity to promote except through word of mouth, and twice monthly e-mails, it was so gratifying that twenty people were added to our efforts with needed contributions. Small stable contributions are always the basis for sustaining a charitable effort over the years to come, and this initial show of support is deeply appreciated. IHS met minimum requirements and is now enrolled for CVC 2012! If you wish to share this announcement by forward e-mail,  the opportunity for exposure  is so welcomed.  Other contact info is also listed below.  Our mission has not changed, only the addition of some unmet needs to assist the social staff in their efforts to further secure those being served. Remember -- " IHS is constantly building a stronger safety net for those who come from great distances in need of temporary assistance with lodging, food, co-pay & prescriptions, and some very important needs in pediatrics, such as infant car seats, baby clothes and  rental fees for electric breast pumps for uninsured mothers."  IHS is a totally independent, non-religious, nonprofit, no stock, ALL volunteer, 501(c)3,  public charity - the "go-to" 24/7 responder when a social worker calls.
