Hi there,

Today is Giving Tuesday -- a day dedicated to giving back and doing good. Giving Tuesday was started in 2012 by New York City’s 92nd Street Y in partnership with the United Nations Foundation, and today is the world’s largest giving movement -- raising over $400 million online last year alone.

Today, the Pete for America campaign is helping fundraise for Disabled American Veterans (DAV), an organization created by disabled veterans and chartered by Congress nearly a century ago to provide resources to veterans in need. DAV supports our nation’s veterans by providing assistance with access to medical care, connecting veterans and their families with earned benefits, and offering employment and job training resources. You can learn more about their organization at DAV.org.

When we ask our service members to put their lives on the line for America, we must be ready to provide them, and their families, with the care they need while serving and the support to heal when they come home.

Today, on Giving Tuesday, we hope to do our small part in honoring the commitment of our service members, veterans, and their families. We are contributing 100% of all donations to this email to DAV. Will you please chip in whatever you can to support veterans in need across the country?

The American military represents the best of who we are and what we can be. What unites our service members is a shared commitment to support and defend the United States. In this, they have stepped up and set an example for us, and the world, about the potential of the American experiment.

We have a lot of work to do to make sure we’re keeping our word to our veterans and their families. As president, Pete will honor the commitment of our service members, veterans, and their families and ensure that every veteran has the opportunity to continue to lead on the home front. If you have time, please take a second and read Pete’s plan to keep America’s promise to care for our veterans and military community members.

And today, on this Giving Tuesday, will you chip in to support Disabled American Veterans?

Thank you for your generosity,

Pete for America
