Dear Friend, Summertime is here, and it's helping us all feel a little more carefree and restful (especially this year!) But the weight of homelessness and hunger, compounded by the extreme heat, is taking a severe toll on families and kids in your area. We’re hearing similar accounts at VOA centers across the country. Thank goodness for friends like you—aware of your community, and how small steps make a big difference for local families struggling.
Lina is a hard-working mom of two, but her situation turned from bad to worse to terrifying. She lost her job at a daycare that closed and never re-opened (due to Covid-19.) With no new work despite constant job searching, she and her daughters ended up homeless. Thanks to compassionate supporters, a place was there for Lina to find relief, and restore a better life for her family. All she needed was that second chance. YOU can be that bridge—from despair to hope. You can save lives this summer. Your gift will rescue a family, or senior, or a veteran, with basic necessities like safe shelter, water, nutritious food, counseling and other critical support.
