Hi Friend,
Just a quick note—because I can’t stop thinking about the story of a mom at
one of our VOA Operation Backpack® events.
She stood quietly, her shy little grade schooler holding her hand tightly.
When we handed Mom a filled backpack, she smiled with relief.

One mom even found herself in tears **—she never expected so much emotion over
a backpack. **
**[This is what your kindness and other supporters' make

—not just backpacks, but compassion and care that show up in many ways.
**Right now, our VOA teams are filling backpacks across the country** —and
also providing food, housing support and a helping hand to families struggling
through the summer.
If you haven’t had a chance to give yet to our VOA lifesaving efforts, like
Operation Backpack®, it’s not too late.

Together we can show up for many more families in need right now—with support
they can feel before summer’s even over.
With gratitude,

P.S. The first day of school might seem far away (thankfully😊)—but the work
starts now. [Your gift can help with backpacks and so much
more.]([link removed])
