albemarle magazine, a division of


Carden Jennings Publishing Company, Ltd., is proud to support our community with charitable contributions, public service, and a staff that volunteers their time and talent to advance a variety of worthy causes. These extra efforts are important to albemarle, but the most vital public service the company provides is its endeavor to inform and enlighten its citizens. The ultimate reward for the public


service we provide is the knowledge that albemarle is helping to make the Commonwealth a better place to live. As Jefferson’s Virginia continues to grow and change, it remains the same in its core values and lifestyle. albemarle magazine aims to do the same, continuing the legacy set by the rich history of the area. Nonprofits everywhere are feeling


the effects of the economic downturn, rising demand for services and drastically shrinking pools of funding, and need the support of new and existing donors, volunteers, and the community at large.


Our area nonprofit organizations


touch our daily lives in countless ways: assistance and caring for our most vulnerable people; education and mentoring of youth and adults; artistic and cultural enrichment; protection and preservation of our natural and historic resources; spiritual and religious fulfillment; and many other vital services to our community. albemarle magazine recognizes


the many ways in which nonprofits build personal connections, enhance communities, and strengthen lives. All across the United States and especially in our local community, the lives of individuals have been touched—or will be touched—in some way by a non- profit organization. The following section contains


a sampling of the numerous worthy charities, services, and organizations in our surrounding communities. Nonprofits are essential to our quality of life. Find an organization from the list and choose to give, volunteer, or serve. Your contribution large or small, can really make a difference. a
