Ways to Give

Nov 6, 2017 | VHF News

The Virginia Hemophilia Foundation (VHF) strives to serve and support you with education, advocacy, and community building programs that are of high quality and meet a variety of needs. We hope that you have joined us this past year at an event or are considering participating in the near future. Visit our website to see more about the programs and services that we are so proud of.
To maintain the diverse and successful programming of VHF we need your help! Please consider participating in #GivingTuesday on November 28th and donate to VHF in this annual “Day of Giving”. Since its founding in 2012,  #GivingTuesday has inspired giving around the world, resulting in greater donations, volunteer hours, and activities that bring about real change in communities. Go here to learn more.
Here is what member Elsa Kendall has to say about the importance of volunteering and donationg to VHF “On October 24th, I volunteered at the VHF office. It is meticulous work to run an organization such as VHF and have all the details of which company is doing what in an organized fashion. We need volunteers to help with events like the recent Trick-or-Trot. Although we were staffed fairly well, other times we won’t be. We need your help to volunteer at these events. Also, we need donors. This is a non-profit organization with a small amount of members, we can’t survive without donations. Whether it’s your time or money, you have the power to supply it and help our cause. We have been able to do things like Richmond Days, Washington Days because of your services. Please continue to do that and help us grow and become known in the Richmond community. Thank you for your contributions!” Thanks for your service Elsa!
