Friend,
You can tell Thanksgiving is close — kitchens warming up, people slowing down, hearts opening a bit wider.
Our teams are meeting people who are facing a much different season: parents who can’t afford the basics for their kids, seniors skipping meals to pay the bills, veterans trying to find their footing after service.
Because of kindness like yours, together we’re showing up VOA strong: with warm meals, safe places to land and the kind of care that helps someone take a breath again.
You can carry someone through the holiday – give now! Our 2X match makes your support go twice as far.
I hope you know the difference you’ve made this year. You helped people climb out of some tough places — not just with food or shelter, but with the sense that someone out there refused to give up on them.
THAT'S the steady support that holds people up: A case manager who stays no matter what, a shelter bed that keeps someone safe tonight, a pop-up pantry that fills a gap, an outreach team making sure no one is forgotten.
Keep leaning into kindness with us. We’ll build a brighter holiday and a future every family deserves.
