C&F Gives Back – Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters (CHKD)

At C&F , we believe that a strong community benefits everyone. Since 1927, we have been highly committed to the communities we serve with our time, our talent and our treasure. Our community commitment is perhaps the best example of our Focused on You mission.

One charitable organization that C&F partners with is the Children’s Hospital of the King’s Daughters (CHKD). The King's Daughters’ vision is to support the Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters by providing volunteers, funds, and advocacy to ensure that all the children in our community are treated and cared for by the best medical professionals and state-of-the-art equipment. 

The King’s Daughters invites individuals and businesses across the Hampton Roads area to participate in the Anthem LemonAid annual fundraiser to raise money for CHKD’s Cancer & Blood Disorders Center. To collect funds, participants host a physical lemonade stand, create and sell a “lemonade” product, or virtually accept donations!
 
C&F employees, customers and the community raised $1,800 to help the aid CHKD with their mission.
 
Lisa Coleman, Executive Director for King’s Daughters said, “We are so grateful to C&F Bank for getting a head start on putting the squeeze on childhood cancer,  as part of our Anthem LemonAid campaign that officially kicks off Jul18-Aug 3, all proceeds benefit CHKD's Cancer & Blood Disorders Center (CCBDC)”.
 
This family friendly fun activity in the heat of the summer gives hope to children and their families battling childhood cancer.  Last year there were 8, 553 visits to our cancer clinic. Treatment of pediatric cancer and blood disorders requires well-coordinated comprehensive care that accounts for children's unique physical and emotional needs.
