A UNIQUE GIFT IDEA WITH TWICE THE REWARD

Do you need a unique gift for a dinner invitation, a house party, a birthday bash, anniversary gathering or to honor someone?  Do you need to make a donation in memory of someone?  The Community Foundation at VGCC has made Donation Cards available to all VGCC members.  They can be picked up in the lobby of the Clubhouse in specially labeled containers.  There is a note card and envelope attached to a Donation Card.  Simply complete the note card and mail it or bring it to the recipient.  Mail in the donation card with your tax-deductible donation to The Community Foundation at VGCC in the self-addressed envelope provided.  You will feel TWICE rewarded.  Once for the gift, honorarium or memorial and once for your donation to a very worthy organization.  If you have any questions about the cards, contact Phyllis Shapiro.
