Have You Helped a Veteran
this Holiday Season?

A MESSAGE FROM DANNION BRINKLEY
THE TWILIGHT BRIGADE CHAIRMAN & CO-FOUNDER
With the holidays upon, I cannot help but think back to 1997. That was the year our organization was born, and consisted of just four dedicated people, with one very big dream: No One Need Die Alone. As of 2013, what was once a dream has now become a global vision, fueled by the efforts of the 6,000 volunteers we’ve trained, to date. As co-founder of The Twilight Brigade, and the Chairman of the Board, I am extremely proud of the fact we have the best volunteer caregiver’s training program, in the United States, as well as the most qualified local and national trainers.
In fact, The Twilight Brigade is one the few volunteer organizations recognized by JACHO (Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations) as an outstanding volunteer caregiver’s program. Moreover, I am happy to report, earlier this year we were hand-picked, by the Veteran’s Administration, to contribute to the creation of the standardized model for end-of-life- care volunteers. This landmark standardized model will be implemented in the Veteran’s Hospitals, and then, throughout the entire American healthcare system. It goes without saying that this is an achievement we can all be very proud of…after all these years, I know how proud I am!
But, without the contributions of individuals, like you, who share our deep appreciation for American Veterans, we could not have accomplished these great deeds, for The Twilight Brigade cause. Yet, with all of this in mind, we still have a long way to go, because a large segment of our country’s population, known as the Baby Boomers – nearly 78 million of them – have 10,000 members turning 65 every day. This means that the need for more qualified end-of-life care volunteers, along with more caregiver’s support, and grief and bereavement counselors is also increasing every day. With your generous financial support, The Twilight Brigade will have the greatest ability to meet this most unprecedented challenge in the history of American’s healthcare system.
As you decide upon where to send your charitable donations, in preparation for your end of year taxes, I ask you to please consider helping The Twilight Brigade. Through your kind contributions, we will be able continue our dedicated guardianship of the end-of-life care needs for those who have served this great nation, when we needed them most.
If you have the choice of giving your hard-earned dollars to the government or to us, I sure hope you choose The Twilight Brigade. In this way, you will become a member of our global vision, and because of you, No One Need Die Alone.
Happy Holidays,
Dannion Brinkley
