Greetings to all our Donors and all who visit our page.
We need your help and support to continue the Veteran Meditation Retreat Project in 2024!
Although we had to make the difficult decision to drop the number of Veteran participants for our 2023 retreat, the event was a great success. We served a total of 35 Veterans, including the VMR project staff. Participants continue to meet weekly on Zoom to practice meditation and check-in. Many participants expressed gratitude for the project and felt the connection and camaraderie with fellow Veterans, which was the best part, as well as the awareness of slowing down to concentrate on the breath.
Research supports that meditation interventions benefit veterans' mental health and overall well-being, and we witnessed the benefits Veterans gained by participating in the retreat.
We are deeply grateful for all the support of time, money, and energy to have a successful 2023 retreat. Because of donations and grants, we were able to support the entire project with funds from our generous donors this year. Due to the success of our inaugural retreat, we will continue to raise funds for our 2024 Veteran Meditation Project for 50 Veterans and ask for continued support for the retreat project in 2024.
Please help us reach our goal of fully funding each veteran participant to join the Veteran Meditation Retreat in 2024 to experience the benefits and community of practice.
We need your support to help us meet our 2024 goal of $100,000. Share with your connections and encourage donations to help us serve our fellow Veterans—much gratitude to you all.
