We need your help to restore and repair the Montford Point Marine Association (MPMA) Veteran Center located at 7011 S. Vincennes, Chicago, Illinois 60621.

We are asking for at least 50 volunteers to help work in our veteran center on November 11, 2019. We have a partnership with Rebuilding Together, a nonprofit with a Heroes at Home Program and Sears, our benevolent donor who will supply funding for some of the internal repairs, if MPMA finds the volunteers.

If you are interested in volunteering. Please sign up at the Rebuilding Together link https://form.jotform.com/92934088640161 and email your name and phone number to Chris Lacey at MPMACorrespondenceOfficer@gmail.com.

We will add you to our master list of volunteers.

The deadline to sign up is November 8, 2019.

Thank you in advance.
