Consider this Final Appeal as a Truly Worthwhile Opportunit

December 31st is the end of the year. Only 4 more days.  While many will have donated to a charitable activity before Christmas Day, some of you who are friends of IHS  may want to take advantage of this final chance to receive a charitable tax deduction to assist  the indigent and severely underfunded who must come to Charlottesville to the UVA Medical Center for treatment.   Remember - your donation allows us to respond 24/7 to UVA Social Workers who call for assistance with lodging, food, prescriptions, co-pays or infant car seats for the UVA Pediatric Clinics when no other agency or organization is available as that final safety net. It's your chance to do good. Consider one of two methods for your donation. (1) Write a check to IHS and send it by regular mail to: IHS P.O. Box 163 Palmyra, VA 22963 Make a copy to retain for your IRS tax filing as a charitable donation for 2016. (2) Or donate by accessing the DONATE BUTTON at the end of this short reminder. In closing for these final days of 2016, thank you for whatever you can do to secure our efforts to sustain these vital physical needs for the least able among us.  Please know that no one in this public charity is paid. The largest private donations of time and funding still comes from the founding members; however, it is simply not enough to sustain a growing need. If it were not so, then I promise we would not ask for your assistance. Also remember - for transparency we hold the "Gold Seal of Approval" from the Guidestar.org national clearing house. Please do what you can. And, if you would like to donate now to our cause, please click the button below to go to our encrypted secure on-line donation form.    From all of us to all of you, T. Wade, Sam ... and remembering Elisheva IHS Founding Members
