Giving Back to the Richmond Community this Holiday Season

Supporting our community through challenging times

The holiday season is upon us, and we are mindful that this time of year may pose extra challenges for children and families negatively impacted by the pandemic, the economic downturn, and other challenges.

This year, Keiter is making a special monetary contribution to two nonprofit organizations that help to support children adversely impacted by the physical and mental health challenges and/or economic challenges faced by their caregivers. Neighborhood Resource Center (NRC Fulton) and Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) are making a profound difference in the Richmond community in this focus area.

Together, we can make a difference

We would greatly appreciate our clients and friends to partner with us in supporting the community this holiday season by donating or volunteering time to NRC Fulton, SCAN, or another worthy local nonprofit.

About Greater Richmond SCAN
