Edmarc, a Portsmouth-based non-profit organization that provides services to terminally ill children and their families on the Southside as well as the Peninsula, is expanding its operations and will soon open an office in Greater Williamsburg. Edmarc made the announcement on July 6.

Edmarc, which has been serving the region for more than 40 years, has received a $2 million grant from the state to assist with the expansion. In addition, it has raised 89 percent of its $2 million goal for its “The Next Chapter” capital campaign.

Edmarc provides support for expecting parents whose child is diagnosed with a life-threatening illness before birth through its perinatal support program. In addition, it offers in-home care for children from infancy through the age of 18 through its clinical program. The organization offers nursing, social and volunteer support, and bereavement services to families.

The New Local News Model

On July 1, we started a new way to pay for news. Yes, we want you to subscribe, but we know nobody subscribes to every site they visit just because there's a paywall.

So if you don't want to subscribe (even at the low price of $39.99 for a year), you can pay for access to individual articles. Or just buy a 24-hour pass, as if you were buying a single copy of a newspaper. We use a new payment service called Transact, which lets you pay for individual articles in as little as three seconds. And you will get $3 in credit when you sign up (just an email address, no credit card required), which will let you pay for at least 20 articles.

This is new for everyone, so we're going to ease you into this. Initially, there won't be many articles that you have to pay for. Short ones will always be free. And even the longer stories will let you read the first half or so for free. We'd love to hear what you think, so send us a note at feedback@peninsulachronicle.com.

The Peninsula Chronicle reports on business news on the Virginia Peninsula, from Williamsburg to Newport News and Hampton.
