Why I Give
Your gift, our impact together
Longtime champions of Inova, Dwight and Martha Schar made a transformational gift of $75 million in May, 2023, and challenged our community to match it by May 31, 2024.
The Schar Challenge is a bold call to philanthropy activating a growing community of leaders helping make exceptional care accessible to all. Would you help us reach our goal? Please join the donors below in being part of the Schar challenge.
“We wanted a place where people could come to receive state-of-the-art care in a caring environmnet that’s beautiful and soothing. Hopefully we can ease their fears with the knowledge that they’re in th right place.”
—Christina Co Mather, Supporter
“Accidents can happen to anybody, and we don’t think about emergency care until we need it. When our family needed them most, Inova saved Cal’s life”
—Alex Orfinger, Supporter
“I want to make a difference and have as much impact as possible. I believe Inova allows me to do both by providing world-class helathcare for nearly 1.2 million people in our region.”
—Bob Hisaoka, Supporter
“My loved ones receive care from Inova, and my giving is the least I can do to share my profound appreciation for the exemplary care.”
—Alquietta Brown, Supporter
Your donation will make possible the next wave of advances including:
- Renovate emergency departments for children and psychiatric patients at Inova Fairfax

We think Mr. Schar said it the best.
“I can’t think of a better way to spend our time, resources, and effort than to help make world-class care possible for everyone, here at Inova.”
