Community Involvement
Every year during the holiday season, Medmarc gives an annual donation toward various community philanthropies—including healthcare organizations for children, therapeutic services, physicians, and more. Medmarc employees drive which community non-profit organizations to support throughout the year and then vote at the annual holiday event.
- Angels for Alyssa
This is a non-profit dedicated to supporting medical research for methylmalonic acidemia, which is a rare genetic disorder of amino acid and odd-chain fatty acid metabolism. The mission is to raise awareness and find better treatments and/or a cure for this rare disease. The organization was founded by Dennis Meisel and his wife
Bonnie Meisel in honor of their daughter Alyssa. - Camp Sunrise
Camp Sunrise believes no child or family should experience childhood cancer alone. It is the support and compassion from our campers, volunteers, medical team, and staff that create the essence of Camp and bring us together each year. - Cure JM Foundation
Cure JM Foundation was established to find a cure for Juvenile Myositis. Their ultimate goal was to eradicate JM, so that no child would ever have to suffer from this insidious disease again. - Susan G. Komen
Since 1982, Susan G. Komen has funded nearly $1.1 billion in research, more than $2.3 billion in education, screening, and treatment, serving millions in over 60 countries worldwide. The funds raised by passionate 3-Day® supporters and participants are used to invest in cutting-edge research that will lead to new, more effective treatments, working in communities across the country to ensure all people can access the care they need, and mobilizing passionate supporters to make certain the voice of the breast cancer community is heard by policymakers. - The Sweet Julia Grace Foundation

To Bless, Celebrate, and Love children who are seriously ill, have special needs, or are currently facing a medical crisis. They grant wishes that bring joy and change lives, fill in gaps other services are unable to fill, and provide support with day-to-day needs for families going through the unimaginable with their child. The gifts they provide bring comfort and happiness; and oftentimes dramatically improve and change children’s lives. They call the children they serve raindancers!
Medmarc and its team members donated, packed, and delivered 75 packs of food bags that were distributed to needy community residents in the Dulles South Food Pantry’s (DSFP) program.
We continue to support DSFP and its programs by hosting an annual food drive and donating funds during our annual Medmarc Give Back Campaign.
