In my role as RVNAhealth’s Director of Philanthropy, I work with my team to raise funds and awareness to support our mission of delivering unmatched, compassionate healthcare when and where it is needed.
It is never lost on me that no matter what I or my team does in pursuit of that mission, it would not exist without you, our donors, sponsors, and volunteers. You make all the difference to us and to the many who would not otherwise have access to healthcare.
This is the best part of my job … my favorite part … saying thank you. Thank you for your support, whether it is given in time, expertise, financial gifts, or helping to raise awareness of our incredibly impactful organization. Together, we are making our communities stronger and healthier.
This past year, with your help …
- 62,461 healthcare visits were made to patients in their homes.
- 454 hospice patients received compassionate end-of-life care, including 1,400 hospice volunteer hours.
- 362 children with limited access to basic, preventive healthcare received school-required physicals and immunizations at no cost.
- 7,835 visits to our outpatient Rehabilitation & Wellness Center helped patients recover strength and mobility.
- 64 new moms and 52 babies were served by our Nurse Family Partnership program.
- 350,630 hours of non-medical assistance with daily living needs helped people remain safe and independent at home.
While “thank you” is just two little words, they reflect a huge dose of gratitude for the powerful impact your support has had on the lives of so many.
Best wishes from RVNAhealth to you and yours for a wonderful new year filled with health and happiness.
With sincere appreciation,
Mary Jean Heller
Director of Philanthropy
