2019
December 2019 Betty Vinson Christmas Toy Airlift.
Due to circumstances beyond our control, we are no longer able to sponsor the Toy Airlift. We have had a successful and fun event for many years and wish to thank all of you for supporting the Virginia Chapter in this endeavor. Without your commitment, time, and expense, we would not have been able to sponsor the Toy Airlift. The thousands for toys that were donated to the Holiday Helper Association at Ft. Lee and the thousands of dollars of gift cards given to McGuire Veterans Hospital were truly appreciated.
Any airport that has already collected toys or gift cards/personal care items for the VA Hospital, please contact Barbara Headley or Joyce Meier. We will make sure these items get to the Holiday Helper Association or McGuire Veterans Hospital. If anyone wishes to continue to contribute to either of these organizations, the addresses are:
Holiday Helper Association, PO Box 5155, Fort Lee, Virginia 23801
Volunteer Services, Hunter Holmes McGuire VA Medical Center, 1201 Broadrock Blvd., Richmond, Virginia 23249.
If any organization, or Ninety-Nines chapter wishes to sponsor a Toy Airlift in the future, we would be happy to help you. Barbara Headley (H) 804-580-4624, (C) 804-347-7592, barbaraheadley@va.metrocast.net or Joyce Meier 804-932-3641, n4mw@msn.com.
