Dear IAVA Supporter,

 

Rey couldn't sleep.

 

After his second tour in Iraq, Rey Leal returned home to Texas a different man. He found it hard to reconnect with his friends and family, and facing recurring nightmares, he dreaded falling asleep.

 

One night while watching TV, he saw an ad for IAVA's social network - Community of Veterans. He logged on and found thousands of other vets who knew where he was coming from.

 

Since then, Rey has gone on to become a leader in the community. He met with dozens of Senators and Representatives on Capitol Hill during IAVA's annual Storm the Hill trip in February. Soon after, he testified before Congress to help accomplish our number one legislative priority for the year - advance funding for VA healthcare.

 

Rey is one of thousands of veterans and their families whose lives have been impacted by the work we do at IAVA. And we can only continue this work with your generous support.

 

This year, our goal is to raise $50,000 by December 31st, so that we can reach more vets like Rey. Can you chip in to help us reach our year-end goal?

 

Whether you contribute $5 or $500, your donation will change lives. And it's completely tax-deductible.

Thank you for your generosity, and for your continued support. We couldn't do any of this without you.

 

Sincerely,

Paul
