Care-A-Thon: Make an Impact & Earn Nursing Clinical Ladder Credit!
Looking for a meaningful way to give back—and earn Nursing Clinical Ladder points? Join the RMH Foundation’s Care-A-Thon, running Monday, Sept. 29 – Friday, Oct. 3, 2025!
The Care-A-Thon is our annual phone-a-thon, where volunteers call donors to invite them to support our local hospice program—helping provide grief support groups, memorial events, and staff training. Most volunteers complete their calls in just 1–2 hours, either on campus on Tuesday, September 30 (4–8 pm, dinner provided) or virtually at a time that works for you during the event week.
This is a Nursing Clinical Ladder-eligible opportunity, so your participation counts toward your professional advancement. Have questions? Linda Bradley (Surgical Services), BRAIN: Professional Practice & EBP Council Member and loyal Care-A-Thon volunteer, is available as an alternate contact: lhbradle@sentara.com … or contact event host Ben Craig (RMH Foundation) at: bxcraig1@sentara.com or (540) 689-8543.
