We <br />recognize the need for developing creative ways to solve problems <br />and meet community needs for all members of our society. <br />I hope you will recognize March 5 -12, 1995 as Volunteers of <br />America Week and ask that you join us in celebrating our 99th year <br />of service. Your letter acknowledging our service to people in <br />the Little Canada community will be appreciated. <br />Your proclamation, along with other proclamations and letters <br />will be duplicated and put into booklet form. A booklet commemorat- <br />ing our 99th birthday will be placed in the reception area of each <br />of our programs and senior dining sites. <br />Something wonderful is happening in Minnesota, because of you! <br />Your interest and support makes a significant impact on the success <br />of our organization. And, as you know, our success is measured <br />through the lives of those we touch. <br />Respectfully Yours, <br />044-te4 di' James E. Ho ie, Jr. President <br />Enclosure <br />Page 1 <br />
