(WVIR) - The United Way of Greater Charlottesville has been running Cville Tax Aid for decades helping to file tax returns for low-income families. With the coronavirus pandemic pushing everything virtual the United Way had to adjust how it serves these families. “It’s a pandemic, it’s a crisis. None of us have ever lived through times such as these, and there’s a tendency to kind of throw up your hands and think, ‘we’re just not going to do the program this year,’” United Way of Greater Charlottesville President and CEO Ravi Respeto said.

Santa Fund gets record boost with $75,000 donation

FROM STAFF REPORTS For the second-straight year, an anonymous donor has fueled the Santa Fund for Schoolkids with a large donation to bring the home-grown charity closer to goal and its mission of helping Central Virginia children all year long. The donor gave the fund $75,000 this year, helping the charity along its way to its $175,000 goal. The donation is the largest ever received by the charity. Last year a $50,000 helped push the fund toward the same goal. “This was a huge surprise and we are thrilled, as we know the significant difference this gift will make for local economically disadvantaged children,” said Ravi Respeto, president and CEO of the United Way of Greater Charlottesville, which administers the fund. “It is from the same anonymous donor from last year who has increased their gift this year.”
