LCHC Receives $200,000 Donation

(LCHC) ended 2011 on a high note having received a donation of $200,000 from Inova Loudoun Hospital.

Since LCHC first opened in 2007, Inova has provided support to the health center in the form of an annual cash donation of $200,000, along with in-kind services and support.

“Inova’s annual donation means so much to us,” said CEO of the Loudoun Community Health Center Debra Dever. “We’ve grown to become such a critical resource in Loudoun County, but as the economy has continued in decline, the number of people seeking our care has escalated. Inova’s support is essential to our ability to help thousands of our neighbors in need, and for that, we are very grateful.”

LCHC has a $5 million operating budget. Even with some federal grant support, the center still must raise more than 80 percent of its budget through its fundraising efforts in the community. 

The center is in the process of that will have the capacity to care for 12,000 patients a year. To help pay for the project, they have launched a capital campaign. The new building is scheduled to be completed next winter.
