VOTR Dir. of Philanthropy is running for Veterans!

Good Evening Friend of Veterans On the Rise,

Thank you so much for your generous gifts to Keeping Veterans Rising : to end veteran suicides! through GlobalGiving on Monday, October 15, 2018.  We are grateful for your kind and thoughtful support!  There are thousands of inspiring projects here on GlobalGiving, so we’re grateful you chose to support our work. Thank you for being a part of our team of supporters that are making our project a reality.

You can also see our past reports on GlobalGiving. I hope you enjoy learning about our work and continue to stay engaged with our team.  One last thing—sharing our project with your friends and family helps us spread the word about our work and continue to grow our community of supporters like you. If you’re willing to share the story of our work with your network, we’d be incredibly grateful.

On October 7th, I ran my seventh Army 10 Miler run in extreme humidity in support of the work we do at Veterans On the Rise. On October 13 we hosted a community cookout, clothing and food giveaway in honor of the birthday of the US Navy at the VOTR Empowerment Center and Cheryl's Kloset.  We hope you will join us by scheduling a visit for a tour, donating a day of volunteer service each month, and supporting some of our upcoming events with donations from friends and family.  Thank you for all you do to support VOTR!  The art of serving is the gift! 

Upcoming events:

October 23 Pumpkin Carving Event 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM

October 30 Fireside chat with Executive Director Charles Avery 

End of Year Campaign for VOTR October 17 - December 31

Even more events in November and December for you to join in the fun at VOTR. 

Best ahead,

Melanie Avery
