OWVA is proud to partner with Mattress World in an effort to help Veterans and military Families, during the month of May. OWVA has actively participated with the Oregon National Guard's Family Readiness Group (ORNG's FRG) and family assistance program providers. Since 2002, we have helped hundreds of families with emergency housing, medical bills, and transportation issues. We work directly with the the General Staff and FRG system for the ORNG.

This month, 3,200 members of the Oregon National Guard are being deployed to Iraq and will leave their families behind to struggle during this economic recession. OWVA will do everything possible to help relieve the stress that comes with financial emergencies.

Your financial support is critical for this mission.

The joint effort will raise money for our charitable work. During the TV ad's filming, Sherri, told Warnock,
"I am so proud to help OWVA raise funds to help Oregon's military families. I can't imagine what it would be like to leave your family to serve your country, and be forced to rely on the charity of others." She added, "Thank you so much for the opportunity to let us help you."

All funds donated through the Mattress World Public Service project will be dedicated to OWVA's charitable service projects and programs. We will provide a tax deductible reciept for your contribution upon request. Make a one-time donation by clicking the donate button below.

Thank you for supporting Oregon's Veterans and Military Families!

Sincerely,

Greg Warnock
Executive Director
