Senator Mark Warner and Board member Mike Lincoln of Cooley.
McLean, VA, November 1, 2010 – Senator Mark Warner was the featured speaker at the MCCP Foundation annual Corporate Leadership Breakfast. The breakfast was held October 25 at Cooley, Godward, Kronish offices in Reston.
The MCCP Foundation funds health care for the children of uninsured low-income working families in Fairfax County. Despite being one of the wealthiest counties in the nation, there are many thousands of children in our community who don't have access to doctors and dentists when they need them. This is a critical problem. Good health is essential to school success, and for attaining the foundation for a successful life. The children who qualify for MCCP Foundation assistance are the victims of a “perfect storm”: families who work hard but have trouble earning enough to make ends meet; the difficulty of finding and affording health insurance; and a weak economy forcing cuts in public services. But MCCP Foundation is an important part of the solution: MCCP Foundation is the “perfect un-storm”!
MCCP Foundation is a public/private partnership that is a proven model of community problem-solving. Our partners are our corporate, foundation and individual supporters, the medical community including Kaiser Permanente, and Fairfax County government.
