Over the past eight years, Subaru has donated nearly $10 million to the Meals on Wheels network — that's equivalent to more than 1.4 meals to seniors across the country! Today through January 3, 2017, for every new Subaru vehicle leased or sold, Subaru will donate $250 to the customer's choice of participating charities. When you select Meals on Wheels America, VNA will receive a share of the revenue earned in Texas.

If you or your family members are in the market to purchase a new car, we'd like to Share the Love with you! Learn more here.

Just 19 days until Christmas! If you need an easy solution for sending Christmas card greetings to friends and loved ones, let VNA take this item off your to-do list by sending them for you. You'll love the beautiful look of the red and silver cards that are both tasteful and festive. Best of all, we'll customize each card with your name, message and promptly get it in the mail.

To arrange for your holiday cards, email your list to butchere@vnatexas.org or contact Elise at (214) 689-2606. Please consider sending a $12 donation for each card you would like sent and let us know if you’d like your donation designated for VNA Meals on Wheels or charitable hospice care.

We’re on to a fresh new year, full of possibilities and challenges. With 10,000 people in the United States turning 65 each day, there are so many opportunities for us to serve our senior population. Together, we can fulfill the VNA mission of providing care and services allowing for independence and dignity. For more than 80 years, VNA has been actively assisting the community with your assistance and support. Whether we are delivering a hot, nutritious meal or caring for a patient at the end of their life, we know that people are depending on us for the help they desperately need. Wishing you a year of health and happiness in 2017!

Gratefully,

President & CEO VNA Texas
