Community Giving
Thank you for your interest in hosting an event on behalf of the CAMC Foundation. We appreciate your efforts to make a positive impact on our community and make a difference in the lives of CAMC patients.
Giving back can take various forms (5k runs/walks, bake sales, golf outings, office collection, etc.), but all events require detailed planning. Our staff works with members of the community at various levels of support. We will work with you directly to offer assistance in the planning of your event and to ensure you have the right tools to be successful. Our goal is to give you the resources to make this fun, easy and successful.
If you think community giving is something you would like to be a part of, please read the following information and return a completed application to our office. Our community giving officer will be in contact with you within a week of receiving your application.
If you have any questions contact our Community Giving Officer or phone 304-388-9860.
Thank you for wanting to make a difference in our community!

Frequently Asked Questions:
Although the CAMC Foundation actively encourages community involvement through events and gifts, the foundation must pre-approve all events. This is an important safeguard to preserve the integrity of CAMC, the CAMC Foundation and our commitment to our donors. We are only able to approve and endorse fundraisers that meet the mission of CAMC and its affiliated entities. Therefore, CAMC must pre-approve of all uses of the CAMC name and logo.
You should be notified by foundation staff within one week of receipt of your application. We reserve the right to review and/or request additional information before approving a proposal.
Once your completed application has been approved, a member of the CAMC Foundation staff will provide you a logo to use for your promotional materials. Foundation staff must approve anything with the CAMC name or logo or the CAMC Foundation name or logo prior to any copying, printing and/or distribution. This also includes, but is not limited to, print media, electronic media and social media.
The CAMC Foundation is able to provide a liaison to give advice and guide you in the successful planning of your event. However, the foundation is not responsible for your event and cannot manage your fundraiser.
You are welcome to contact local media outlets regarding your event once it has been approved by the foundation. The CAMC Foundation cannot write or distribute press releases or other advertisements on your behalf. Please provide a draft of media materials to the community giving officer for approval. The CAMC Foundation is happy to create an event on our Facebook page about your event to share with the community.
The CAMC Foundation and CAMC Health System cannot assume any liability for an event conducted on its behalf.
You are responsible for finding and coordinating volunteers for your event.
CAMC Foundation cannot fund or financially support community fundraisers. You are responsible for covering all expenses and will not be reimbursed by the CAMC Foundation for any costs. For these reasons, as you start to collect money, we advise you to designate funds for purposes of event expenses. In your planning process, be sure to develop a budget reflecting the type of event you are having and the costs related to the event.
The proceeds you are donating to the CAMC Foundation can be made in cash or the form of a check payable to the CAMC Foundation. Please include a dated and signed letter, indicating the exact amount of the donation and its intended purpose.
