Nicholle,

This Christmas, the smiles on our loved ones’ faces are the real gifts, aren’t they? Like when a child rips off that last piece of red wrapping paper and sees inside exactly what they wished for!

These are the kinds of smiles we are humbled and honored to witness in our work with families, children and others in need – because of generous people and organizations like you.

Thanks to givers of hope like you, families in need woke up on Christmas morning to gifts and hope they didn't think would be possible this year. Each year, we are blessed to have caring individuals, companies and organizations like the ones above make the season bright for those Volunteers of America serves.

The support you give to the people in our care is real and is life-changing. And with our special holiday match, your impact is DOUBLED.

2X warm meals for hungry children

2X safe shelter for homeless veterans

2X critical support for vulnerable seniors

So many people are struggling. And this time of year can make it worse for them. But your generosity becomes the rescue, the answer to their prayers, and the support and resources they need for better lives for themselves and their loved ones.

Will you help more families in need with your year-end gift? Remember, it will be MATCHED, through Dec. 31!

Thank you for sticking with us this past year and in the new year!

Gratefully,

Russell Snyder

President & CEO

VOA Chesapeake & Carolinas

P.S. Time is running out to get your gift MATCHED by Dec. 31. Thank you again for all you do!

Don't be the Grinch, grow your heart 3 sizes

with the Giving Machine

Are you looking for an easy, innovative and fun way to give back this holiday season? Then come test out the Light the World Giving Machines at Tysons Corner Center! Through January 2nd stop by AMC Tysons Corner 16 before these special machines disappear just as quickly as Santa Claus.

Can't make it out? You can give online at givingmachinesdc.org or by clicking the button below.

The Giving Machine is a popular and visible part of Light the World, the annual Christmas initiative sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Giving Machines are in high-traffic areas of select cities worldwide. Each machine includes dozens of cards representing items and services needed in communities that you can help global and local nonprofits provide.

For our second year in a row, Volunteers of America is partnered with the following amazing charities in this remarkable effort.



• Catholic Relief Services
• REACT DC
• Mentors International
• House of Ruth
• Young Doctors Project
• Willing Warriors

Last year, mall shoppers helped VOA raise $16,550 through the Giving Machines to provide care and support to men, women and children who would normally go without.
