Dear Friend, No running water. Only a cold, concrete floor to sleep on. At the age of 72, Marion found herself living in a small storage unit. After record flooding in her town forced her from her home, she wasn't able to find another place she could afford. Marion says, “I ran out of money. I couldn’t even buy food. I would have a banana for every 2 or 3 days.” The lack of affordable housing for seniors has reached a crisis point in the U.S., exacerbated further by the struggling economy. Many seniors are isolated, and without the means to care for themselves. You're someone who understands what’s happening in your community and your neighbors in need. You know the power you have to change their lives. That’s why I want to share with you this meaningful holiday opportunity that doubles the power of your generosity. Your donation today to VOA will be matched dollar-for-dollar. You can give twice as many seniors, children and families the chance for a new beginning.
Marion turned to her local Volunteers of America, and our Senior Safe House provided emergency relief from her unlivable conditions, allowing Marion to get the support she needed to plan for the future. With your gift this holiday, more people will get a second chance. I hope you'll make the most of this special match opportunity now. Warmest wishes for a happy holiday season, P.S. This is a perfect holiday opportunity. 2X the meals, safe shelter, and care for people who desperately need it this holiday. Please give generously.
