Saginaw , MI — GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. It’s a simple idea: whether it’s making someone smile, helping a neighbor or stranger

out, showing up for an issue or people we care about, or giving some of what we have to those who need our help, every act of generosity counts and everyone has something to contribute

toward building the better world we all want to live in. Aleda E. Lutz VAMC, located at 1500 Weiss St., Saginaw, MI 48602, is hosting GivingTuesday on November 28, 2023 to engage the

community to support Veterans. We will be accepting donations from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the main entrance of the facility. We are asking for donations of winter gloves, hats and thermal

socks that are new and have tags intact to ensure we are giving the absolute best to Veterans. “Since the inception of GivingTuesday, back in 2012, we have seen the thoughtfulness and

concern people feel for Veterans, as they have given generously over the years,” stated Adam Hayward-Lupo, Chief of Center for Development and Community Engagement (formerly known as

Voluntary Service). “These items really help Veterans get through the winter months. They are always grateful and express their appreciation of the community support. We look forward to this

time of year as donations come in and impact the lives of Veterans and are thankful for the support.” The Aleda E. Lutz VAMC in Saginaw, Michigan operates an 81-bed skilled nursing and

rehabilitation Community Living Center. It provides care to over 40,171 Veterans in a 35-county geographic area, from mid-Michigan to the Mackinac Bridge. Veterans can also receive care at

one of our nine VA Community Based Outpatient Clinics located throughout Michigan. More information about this VA can be found at https://www.va.gov/saginaw-health-care/. ###
