As the holiday season approaches, VMSI is proud to announce our partnership with Soldiers’ Angels to support Military and Veteran families through the Adopt-A-Family program. This initiative aims to provide these deserving families with the gifts and support they need to celebrate the holidays joyfully.
The Adopt-A-Family program allows individuals and businesses to adopt a family by providing gifts for their children and a grocery gift card to assist with holiday meals. Specifically, adopters are asked to provide:
- Gifts for Children: A total value of $50 per child.
- Grocery Gift Card: Valued between $75 and $125, to help families prepare their holiday meals.
To enhance our outreach, VMSI is excited to announce that we will match every family adopted by our employees up to $5,000! This initiative not only allows us to support Military and Veteran families but also demonstrates our commitment to giving back to those who have served our country.
Key Dates
- Registration for Families: Opens September 30, 2024
- Gift Delivery Deadline: Gifts should arrive by December 25, 2024. For timely delivery, please note the following shipping deadlines:
- To stateside addresses: Ship by December 15, 2024
- To overseas addresses (APO/FPO/DPO): Ship by December 7, 2024
How It Works
Families register with Soldiers’ Angels and provide documentation to validate their service and financial needs. Once vetted, these families are made available for adoption. Adopters can view family wish lists and coordinate directly with them to ensure that the gifts reflect their needs and preferences.
By participating in the Adopt-A-Family program, we have the opportunity to show our gratitude for the sacrifices made by Military Service Members and their families. This effort reinforces our values of community support and compassion, and we are excited to make a positive impact this holiday season.
