We thank you for helping us raise this money for the good of our residents.
On this day of Thanksgiving, the SEARCH family thanks each and every one of you for all the ways you enrich the lives of our residents. Your ordinary acts take form in so many different ways - from volunteering at the group home and thrift shop, providing culturally enriching activities, monetary donations, fundraising, the produce from your gardens. The list goes on and on.
Giving Tuesday was created to promote charitable acts of giving. Its mission is simple: Encourage a society that is "more gracious".
Black Friday has become the traditional day to buy things that are promoted as bargains. While you are doing your shopping, you also can change lives. The best deal this Friday? Making a real difference.
Thank you for your donation to SEARCH.
who we are
Shenandoah County SEARCH, Inc. (“SEARCH”) was established in August, 1978 by Preston and Vivian Poole, and others who were interested in the welfare of intellectually challenged citizens. SEARCH is a Section 501(c)3 non-profit corporation. Thus donations to SEARCH are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by applicable law.
SEARCH Continues to operate in memory of Vivian Poole, who dedicated 30 years of her life to this cause.
SEARCH is grateful for the visionary leadership of Sid and Betsy Price following the death of Vivian Poole. They helped put SEARCH on the road to success! Their generosity and vision provided SEARCH with the current Thrift Shop building. Care for our residents guided their vision.
