FW: A Lasting Impact on Disabled Veterans

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible;

and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Subject: A Lasting Impact on Disabled Veterans

Dear Robert,
I'm pleased to announce that due to the

generosity of our outstanding donors, a lasting impact is going to be made on disabled veterans for years to come through DVNF's support of the Human Engineering Research Laboratories (HERL).
Last fall, DVNF made a $50,000 grant to HERL so they could purchase a new lathe, which is a crucial piece of equipment they use to research and develop new technologies for those with disabilities.
Not only will this go to support disabled veterans in the future, it's also helping disabled veterans today to learn high-demand job skills through HERL's manufacturing training programs for veterans.
Dr. Rory Cooper, the director of HERL and a paralyzed Army vet, has developed many new technologies that have transformed the lives of wounded and injured veterans.
This includes adaptive equipment like what we're trying to help our friends at Ride2Recovery purchase, which is why your continued support is so important!
I sincerely thank you for recognizing the great challenges that so many of our veterans face. I am even more grateful for your willingness to make sure they are cared for properly.
Sincerely,
