Hello my name is Michael Reese I work volunteering at the stand down for North America I provide items for homeless veterans like sleeping bags shirts cots wool blankets hydration systems polar fleece jackets and boots. I have been doing this for the last ten years and I love it however it is voluntary so there is no pay and I struggle financially to keep the lights on but I would not trade it for the world I live it. All I am asking for is a little assistance so that I can keep this going. I am just the wearhouse worker so I do not have access to the funds donated to directly to the stand down not that I would use it for my own personal gain that is for the veterans and I would do anything for them. They have sacrificed their lives so that we can live in a free world and they should be treated like celebrities. I live out in the middle of nowhere Ive had cancer due to occular melanoma and I lost my left eye I’ve had two shoulder surgeries due to cancer in my shoulders I am cancer free for now but I am at high risk. I plan on serving the veterans until the day I check out. Not only do I do the yuba- Sutter area I also take care of plumas county, Glenn county, lake county, El Dorado county, Ventura county, and many others. All I’m asking for is a little help to keep the lights on I figure if a million people send me just one dollar I could help these veterans keep getting the help they need and will be able to provide thank with what they deserve. I will NEVER use the money for my own personal gain (luxury cars houses etc) I just need to be comfortable so I can keep providing the space I need to help out these heroes we do often put on the back burner I hope this is 400 words at least so it gets read anyway that’s all i have to say im hoping its enough love you all and remember it’s for the veterans my cash app is mikeyree09 and my PayPal is mikeydavid65@gmail.com
