Vermont Business Magazine Central Vermont Home Health & Hospice (CVHHH) has announced that the 2020 Fall Appeal, which was chaired by Ed and Trish Read of Fayston, brought in $80,000. This is the most successful appeal in recent years with close to 500 donors contributing. CVHHH would like to extend sincere thanks to Ed and Trish for supporting this campaign at such a critical time.
CVHHH will use funds raised to support programs and services, including telehealth, which has expanded in the past ten months and for which CVHHH does not receive full reimbursement for services provided. During the pandemic, CVHHH found new ways to embrace virtual and video visits to enhance patient care, supplement in-person visits, provide important check-ins with Central Vermonters, and to reduce opportunities for COVID-19 transmission in the community.

Unlike many other chapters across Saskatchewan, SESKSAR is heading forward in good financial shape. The chapter was able to secure some funds for further equipment purchases as well as for finishing and packing off the incident command trailer, thanks to the generosity of the southeast, and especially the family of Ruby Barnes, who donated the trailer, the Olson family, local RMs and numerous co-op fundraisers. The funding was also generated from some other private donations and a few fundraisers held in 2019 and in 2020 before the pandemic, including the Richard Carriere Memorial Bike Ride. According to fundraising committee chair Trish Read, since its establishment, the chapter was able to raise over $40,000 in cash and non-cash donations. And even though not much could be done in a sense of fundraising since March, the organization was able to still attract some funding. It was also agreed during the meeting that SESKSAR will organize a virtual fundraiser moving forward.
