| Ways to Support Us
                   
              There are no dues or fees to attend meetings and no one is expected to donate. Our chapter is self-supporting through donations made in memory of a child or other donations made directly to the chapter.  We are a tax exempt 501(c)3 non-profit organization and donations are tax deductible. These donations enable us to be here for the families that need us.   
             Chapter funds are used for: 
                 
                 Welcome Packets for new members
                 Chapter phone 
                 Website and community outreach
                 Purchasing TCF brochures and printing of other materials
                 Candle Lighting service expenses
                 Annual dues to TCF national 
                 Training for chapter leadership 
             Our chapter is run by volunteers and we are always looking for people to help out with the various functions and events. If you have an interest, please reach out to any member of the Steering Committee. Volunteering to help does not mean you have to make a long-term commitment. You can volunteer to help with just one event.  To make a donation by mail: The Compassionate Friends RVA   c/o 1119 Worsham Green Terrace Midlothian, VA 23114  To donate online: | There is a way to support the chapter that will not cost you anything!   Do you shop at Kroger?
