Hello Team,
On behalf of the eHealth Technologies Cares Committee, we wanted to reach out and say thank you for taking an interest in the causes and initiatives we’ve spearheaded in the last year, and to refresh everyone on the committee’s purpose:
To build the presence of eHealth Technologies in each of our communities while supporting organizations that align with our vision of advancing the delivery of life-altering care for patients and their families.
We are happy to report that, in 2022, we collectively raised over $5,000 through our team events in support of the American Cancer Society and the Rochester Hope Lodge, and in addition, decorated an eHealth Technologies Christmas tree in Wise, VA, and collected multiple donations for the Ronald McDonald House in Johnson City, TN. Below is a snapshot of the positive impact our monetary donations made on patients residing at the Rochester Hope Lodge:
This year, we have big plans! Our goal for 2023 is to raise $20,000 between all cause-driven events for the year and triple our team member participation. We have events and donation opportunities planned for the year and want to thank those who have already participated in the canned food and personal care items drive at the Rochester event, and those who will donate at the upcoming employee engagement event in Duffield.
One of the largest events the Cares Committee will be taking on this year is the creation and implementation of a Relay for Life event in Wise, VA to benefit the American Cancer Society. Our Cares Committee team members in the Duffield office will appreciate all the support they can get as they take on this worthwhile cause!
In the spirit of planning ahead, we’ve outlined the following causes and initiatives that will be led by the Cares Committee this year. Please mark your calendars and plan accordingly if you are interested in participating either in-person or virtually, and/or are interested in showing your support on social media. Individual reminder emails with more details will be sent ahead of each initiative, and you can always check the Events section on the employee website to get the latest updates.
