The chapter operates a Military Community Assistance Program (MCAP), which provides its members the opportunity to make cash donations to support active-duty service members and combat-wounded veterans and their families.  Over the past several years, donations to the MCAP have supported the following programs, charities and troop-support initiatives:

• Virginia Veteran and Family Support Program
• Families of the Wounded Fund, Inc.
• Fisher House at McGuire VA Medical Center
• Richmond Veterans Care Center at McGuire VA Medical Center
• Spinal Cord Injury & Disorders Center of Excellence at McGuire VA Medical Center
• USO facility at Richmond International Airport
• Virginia National Guard Foundation
• Tech for Troops Project

How You Can Participate - We need chapter members to: (1) staff the MCAP Committee to help organize and administer the MCAP; (2) donate funds to support the financial-assistance objectives of the MCAP: and (3) make donations of Health & Comfort items for McGuire patients.

Cash Contributions - If you wish to donate to support our MCAP efforts click here. All funds donated will be held in a special MCAP account. Disbursement of these funds will be determined by the MCAP Committee and the Board of Directors in response to specific needs of the organizations and programs we support.  Periodic reports will be published in the chapter newsletter to tell you about the progress of the MCAP.
