A Special Fundraising Appeal
As everyone is aware, the disaster of the pandemic has made it impossible for VHF to run our yearly fundraising dinner dance again this year. Last year, we had to send to VN $42,000 which by far was the greatest amount that our RVN disabled veterans in VN had received. Right now, we have 200 vets we provide with semiannual support, and another 170 vets we provide one-time gifts when our budget permits. Therefore, our financial reserve is lower than it’s been for many years.
We have been given a special opportunity by our Chairman to match all incoming donations for the next few months up to a total of $5,000. This is a wonderful chance for us to rebuild our reserve at least to some extent. Therefore, we are asking all our supporters if, even in these difficult times, they can manage to make any kind of donation so we can take advantage of the generous matching offer.
During the period from October 15 to November 30, 2022, a $10 donation will become $20, a $50 donation becomes $100, and a $1,000 donation will become $2,000…
So please, consider if you can what your situation is, and whether you can reach out once again to help our brothers whose need is so great. Things are still very difficult for low-income people in Viet Nam, and we all know there is no help for them from the government. They still need rice, medicine, rent money… As tough as times are for some of us here, we are so much better off than they are that there is no real comparison. We hope we can manage to find some amount, however limited it might be, to contribute to this appeal.
Please make your checks payable to Vietnam Healing Foundation (or just VHF) and mail to The Vietnam Healing Foundation, P.O. Box 281, Morrisville, NC 27560 or contribute through PayPal (they deduct a 3 to 3.5% service charge).
Thank you.
