Friend , I know you’re busy, so I’ll just take a moment – because a moment could mean everything.
Urgent needs – food, shelter and other support – are increasing in your area this holiday, and we need more VOA friends for local efforts. You can change someone's story. Today and all year.
Help can’t wait, for a mom who's desperate that her kids are fed and safe this Christmas…a homeless vet who's broken by trauma, even as he bravely served our country…a senior who feels isolated and scared without housing and critical health care.
Don't forget donations will be MATCHED - I hope you can spare a minute for a quick gift! |
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays. And thank you so much for your partnership ~ Tanisha Smith, Vice President Volunteers of America |

Dear Friend, Joseph was a trained Army Airborne Paratrooper, brave and determined. Back in civilian life, he ended up one of the unlucky people laid off when the pandemic hit. He searched endlessly for work, but when unemployment support was delayed for months, it left him struggling to get by…till Joseph became homeless.
Many veterans share this similar crisis, but thanks to supporters like you, VOA’s Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program can provide housing and other support to more than 2,400 veterans each year. We need you with us to continue this lifesaving support! Make Your Holiday Gift – 2X Match – and Bring HOME to Vets and Those in Need. |

The great news is, your gift to VOA will be matched dollar-for-dollar, thanks to some amazing donors just like you. That’s 2X the impact for people and families in need this holiday season! Joseph got back on his feet with VOA through shelter, meals and counseling – and now lives in his very own apartment. From living out of his car, Joseph found his way HOME with VOA – all because of you!
Please donate to help others like Joseph – you’ll provide real support that makes a real difference all year long. |

P.S. Joseph’s incredible recovery was a result of his strength and determination, plus the resolve of a caring community. This holiday, be the reason someone smiles, knowing their darkest moments are behind them. Thank you! |
