Starting October 8th at 12PM EST, sign up to receive $200 in certificates for JOE Joseph Abboud apparel redeemable online or at your local JCPenney store. Female veterans can also apply to receive certificates for Worthington apparel, also redeemable at JC Penney.
IVAV teamed up with JCPenney and Joseph Abboud to launch “Welcome Home Joe,” a program that starts today and will give away $1 million in professional attire to Iraq and Afghanistan vets transitioning from combat to career – all for free.
Do you know a veteran of Iraq or Afghanistan? Please take a minute to forward this so they have a chance to receive a $200 certificate for professional attire through The Rucksack <http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=UpKE33TiwVmpxNVsbcXiWUlStZvsFlW6> .
This is another groundbreaking way that IAVA is working with our partners to help new veterans get jobs by giving them the tools they need.
Don’t forget that Veterans Day is just around the corner - IAVA will be taking part in local events across the country. Whether it’s marching in a parade, volunteering on the ground, or helping spread the word, there are many ways to get involved. Sign up here <http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=4zteZJhwgKteC0tTcvkzBklStZvsFlW6> and we’ll let you know how you can get involved this year.
Thank you for having our backs.
