A Quick Reminder ....

 
 
Perhaps you noticed on TV or plastered on storefronts: Happy New Year!!!!
 
Yes ... You still have time to consider a donation dated prior to January 1, 2018
when tabulating your taxes, thus taking advantage of charitable giving.
 
Interfaith Humanitarian Sanctum (IHS) appreciates your attention. There is indeed so much good involved by supporting this all-volunteer public charity whose total devotion is to offer immediate temporary funding assistance for lodging, food, prescription co-pays, etc.
 
Thank you for considering a truly worthy action.

YOU are the answer to this question : "How does this charity let others know how it is serving the University of Virginia Medical Center?"

When you share this e-mail with a friend, a fellow worker, a church member, and emphasize that the 6 minute promotional video on the IHS home page is the most informative tool we have ... then your extra effort allows us to add another friend in order to sustain our participation for the least able to afford their trip to Charlottesville.
 
For 9 years this charity has maintained an open communication with UVA Social Workers in order to catch that segment of long-distance patients who arrive without adequate funds to sustain their immediate critical needs. For the grossly underfunded patients and perhaps a caregiver, their unexpected need to be at UVA Medical Center without adequate means is often a frightening challenge. IHS was originated to seek to ease the burden on the least able among us. IHS is a non-profit, totally volunteer effort, highly dependent on private donations.
 
Please allow me to repeat how disconcerting and depressing the experience of arriving at the state's premier hospital, sometimes hundreds of miles from home, arriving late at night without funds for eating or a place to sleep. THIS charity is that 24/7 contact through the Office of Social Workers to assist with last minute unprepared patients.
 
This rather short reminder of how YOU can extend a hand for future arrivals is so needed.
Reach out to your friends by forwarding this e-mail and allow them to review the IHS website.
 
Encourage your contacts to e-mail and ask what they can do to secure this needed charity.
