RE: Armed Services YMCA of Alaska needs help

Diane & Vets,

 

Here is a specific request for help from the Armed Services YMCA of Alaska for an event on 10/21 (via Diane DiSanto with the Mayor’s office). Beyond the obvious donation of items to the silent auction, I am not sure if they are looking for folks to help out in person (especially if we are identifying ourselves as members of Vets for Peace. Since I am leaving town on Sat, 10/7, please include Van Waggoner with any comments you might have about this.

 

Serving Those Who Serve America: Supporting Our Troops!

 

The Armed Services YMCA is a non-profit organization that was designed to meet the challenges facing today's Military and their families most in need.  The programs we offer complement and supplement those provided by the Armed Forces - in essence we try to fill in the gaps and we need your help to keep these programs going.

 

The ASYMCA is hosting Alaska Military Gold Rush, a silent auction, on October 21, 2006 at the Anchorage Railroad Depot downtown.  We are asking for your assistance to make this event memorable by donating door prizes and silent auction items. Not only will you be enhancing the morale among our troops and families, you will be recognized as a business that supports our Armed Forces. We would also like to extend an invitation to join us for the festivities.

 

I will be in touch with you in the next couple of weeks regarding your continued support of our Alaskan Military. Feel free to call me with any questions and we look forward to seeing you at the event. Thank you in advance for your support and assistance to this worthy cause.

 

The Armed Services YMCA qualifies as a 501(c)(3) tax -Exempt Corporation, making your donation tax deductible.  TAX I.D. # 92-0016680.  The Armed Services YMCA did not provide any goods, services or remuneration in consideration, in whole or in part, for the above donation.

 

Sincerely,

 

Mari Jo Imig
