*********************************  

Ms. Frances M. Sheehan

President and CEO

Brandywine Health Foundation

50 S. First Ave.

Coatesville, PA 19320

December 30, 2013

Dear Ms. Sheehan:

Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Don Harting and I live in Downingtown. I represent Brandywine Medical Writers (BMW), a small, informal organization now forming with the express purpose of helping the Brandywine Health Foundation (BHF) achieve its admirable goal of improving the health and well-being of people who live and work in the greater Coatesville area.  BMW would like to offer professional medical writing services to BHF on a pro bono basis during 2014.

BMW members belong to the Delaware Valley chapter of the American Medical Writers Association and live or work in Chester County. We are familiar with the special problems facing many residents of Coatesville, and we have a strong desire to help the underserved. We are also trained and experienced mid-career professionals with knowledge, skills, abilities, and interests in the following areas:

·       Biochemistry

·       Microbiology

·       Public health

·       Medical coding and transcription

·       Laboratory science

·       Nutrition

·       Oncology education

·       Cancer survivorship

·       Continuing education

·       Helping children of divorced parents

·       Newsletter article writing and editing

·       Blogging, tweeting, and social media

·       Content strategy and development

·       Publication planning

·       Copyediting and proofreading

·       Grant writing and editing

We think the projects BHF undertakes to foster community partnerships, build capacity, and make grants to promote health equity and healthy youth are worthy of support. The Festive 5K Run to benefit the Coatesville Youth Initiative is just one example. Please let us know if there is any way we can support you. We are available to discuss this offer by telephone, in person, via email, or whichever manner best meets your needs.

Sincerely yours,

Donald Harting, MA, ELS, CCMEP
