It is a great pleasure to learn of your interest in supporting the VCU Department of PM&R's academic mission through your generous donation to our Foundation fund.

We are extremely proud of what we have been and are accomplishing in the Department, and our mission is made even more productive through the generosity of Foundation donors.

As you may be aware, the faculty of the Department have established a special fund within the Foundation to match all donations on a dollar for dollar basis, thus your gift will have double the impact.

Some of the academic missions these funds support include resident and fellow educational activities (conference and academy meeting attendance, textbooks) and trainee and junior faculty research (pilot studies, excellence awards).

While the Department continues to prosper across the spectrum of our missions, in these challenging economic times the diversity of resources that the Foundation offers is especially necessary.

Please contact Rebecca Roddy rroddy@vcu.edu to learn more about the endowment opportunities and process.

Your thoughtfulness in this gift is greatly appreciated.

Keep in touch!
