 Monday, June 1:  WV for Affordable Health Care (WVAHC) Reception and Fundraiser

5:30 - 7:30 PM, Charleston Woman's Club, 1600 Virginia Street East.  WVAHC is focusing on national health care reform. WVAHC's goals are clear: quality, affordable health care for every American. Accomplishing these goals will require resources: Board and staff time, community involvement and money.
