Your ticket purchases support The Dodi Myers Scholarship Fund Click here to see more photos and information from the luncheon    The Haymarket Regional Food Pantry (HRFP) has revised its approach for donations/food collections. The Pantry is a wonderful way for us to help needy families in our Community. The HRFP serves 4,000 people each month. More food, household and personal items can be bought and distributed to the clients if they can be purchased in bulk, so the HRFP has initiated that type of supply and demand program. We have been asked to donate monies (checks or cash) so that 100% of the needs can be met at the lowest price. HRFP has recently acquired additional space from the neighboring tenant and has purchased many shelving units to stock supplies for 3 months in advance. New refrigeration units will also be added. In place of shopping, please consider a monetary donation. You have an opportunity to support the HRFP at our community wide drive on Tuesday, March 21, 2023!

Dear Regency Women's Club Members, I wanted to share the following expressions of gratitude from the Regency Board and Mrs. Mincemoyer, showing how successfully the RWC is living up to our commitment to serving our community. The time and effort RWC members give to making our community a better place is valuable. Each of us makes a difference when we donate to a collection, bake cookies for our helpers, donate to the Haymarket Food Pantry, buy a scholarship raffle ticket, volunteer for bingo, support our fundraising efforts or drop off flowers to a resident in need. We are so grateful to the members of the Community Service Committee and their VP, Pat Valle, as well as the Fundraising Committee and their VP, Mary Howell, for the countless hours they have spent ensuring the success of our projects. Of course, we couldn't accomplish all we have without the support of each one of you and Regency residents. I am so proud to be part of RWC. Take care, Nancy Converse President, Regency Women's Club Comments from the March Regency Board Meeting... The Regency Women's Club was acknowledged for how much they do for the community and surrounding area. Outreach projects include the recent 497 stuffed animals that were collected from our community for the children in our local hospital ER. Others include the holiday gift program and children's winter coat drive for those less fortunate, and the support of 2 charities each year. A note from a mother of a child who recently received a stuffed giraffe from the RWC stuffed animal collection. See attached photo. “I wanted to reach out to you and the Regency Women's Club to send a note of sincere gratitude. My 7 year old daughter was in the ER at the UVA medical center in Haymarket last week for a severe allergic reaction in which she ended up needing to be transported to Fairfax hospital. Before the ambulance arrived, the nurses brought her a stuffed giraffe donated by your group and it made her entire night 💕 She was so very happy to have something to snuggle and comfort her during such a scary event and she hasn't let go of it since. Thank you all so very much for thinking of the sweet kids and making a scary situation a little more bearable. Sincerely, Melissa Mincemoyer”

Thank you from the Regency Women’s Club As you may know, the RWC’s primary mission is to serve the community through charitable projects and fundraisers. The Regency at Dominion Valley community never ceases to amaze us through your generosity and caring support of these efforts. This past year you have helped us meet, and more often, exceed our goals. The food and monetary donations, donations of teddy bears, coat and school supplies, blood donations, Angel Tree participation, glasses collections, and more have made a difference in our surrounding community. Every single thing you do helps someone else. For that we are truly grateful. You are the bright lights. Thanks to so many of you for coming out, volunteering, and supporting our club and the charitable works we do every month. We have begun our Membership Drive for the 2022-23 season. The new form is here for printing. |
