Let's Help the Alaska National Guard and Reserve: April 2, 2004

Dear Neighbor,

LET’S BE PARTNERS OF OUR ALASKA NATIONAL GUARD AND RESERVE!

There’s a link between the safety of our neighbors serving in the Alaska National Guard and Reserve, the success of its military mission, and the well being of their families back home. Guard and Reserve families are no less important than the latest weapons technology, aircraft, or tanks on the battlefield.

THAT’S WHERE ALASKA NATIONAL GUARD FAMILY ASSISTANCE CENTER COMES IN!

Families can be left with many burdens, and usually reduced income, when their loved ones are deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan, or some other place in the world. Others may be the sole help for an aged or disabled parent. Our Guard and Reserve needs to know help is available at home when help is needed.

For example, the Alaska National Guard Family Assistance Center recently helped the family of a deployed airman who lost their home and possessions in a fire, including helping to replace contact lenses lost in the fire. In other words, services provided by the National Guard Family Assistance Center can be indispensable.

THAT’S WHY I’M ASKING FOR YOUR HELP!

We have almost 13,000 registered voters in our House District 31. That’s 13,000 potential partners for the Alaska National Guard Family Assistance Center. Please help support our Guard and Reserve families with a generous tax-deductible contribution through their account at “Friends of the Guard and Reserve.” A pre-addressed envelope will deploy your donation directly to the Family Assistance Center in Anchorage.

PLEASE MAKE YOUR CHECK PAYABLE TO “FRIENDS OF THE GUARD AND RESERVE.”

This fundraising effort has been coordinated with the Alaska National Guard command. You may call Major Beth Law at 264-5311, if you have any questions. God Bless our Alaska National Guard and Reserve, and their families!
