Friend,
There is one main reason why VOA was able to show up time and again in the past year for more than one million people in need. That reason is you.
As a supporter of VOA, you were there with us in this lifesaving work. THANK YOU.
So many people came to us in need of food, housing, and emergency support — with rising prices and ongoing Covid impacts adding to their struggles. With you by our side, VOA was there for them to make a fresh start.
Chris serves as our Western Washington Senior Director of Hunger Prevention. He does an amazing job. In his daily work with hungry children and struggling families, Chris’ connection goes extra deep.
“I can truly relate to those I serve. My mom got WIC when we were kids. I’ve had just buttered noodles for dinner or chili all week. I understand."
Add Chris' individual impact to that of a nationwide network of VOA staff, and together with you, the power of our compassion is boundless!
As we usher in this new year, I’m truly excited for all that we can achieve. Thank you!
Happy New Year,
Mike King, President & CEO Volunteers of America
P.S. I’m thrilled to say that we met the full $50,000 in matched donations, so we are starting 2022 with more funds that will serve many more people. I can’t thank you enough!
