On each luncheon invitation, DVSA members are asked to consider a donation to the Food Cupboard.  Usually, about $400 to $500 is collected from members in amounts ranging from $5 to $100.

The DVSA treasury accumulates money collected until it reaches $500. Any DVSA members may nominate recipient organizations involved in feeding the needy. These nominations are presented to and approved by the DVSA Board.  The monies are presented at a DVSA luncheon to the recommending member for delivery to the charity.

In 2007, the five gifts of $500 were made to recommended charities. In 2008, five $500 gifts have been made to Senior Citizens United Community Services of Camden County, Main Line Meals on Wheels, The John Gloucester House, Aid for Friends, sponsored by St. John Neumann Church, Bryn Mawr and Baby Manna, sponsored by St. Matthew Lutheran Church, Springfield.   Click Here to View/Print the Donation Form
