A short note to our donors and supporters:

ARA has a long track record of maximizing the impact of your donations in support of divorced U.S. military personnel Active, Retired and Reserve. Our organization was founded by veterans in 1984 and is presently managed and funded by that small group of retired founders. That's why we're proud to operate with exceptionally low administrative expenses, ensuring that every dollar raised goes directly towards our mission. Our operation is essentially self-funded with no board member fees, no reimbursed travel expenses, no salaries and no allowances. We rely totally on donations, both yours and ours, to keep the ship afloat for the sole purpose of covering ongoing printing and mailing costs, website expenses and communications costs. We’ve done that every year since ARA was founded and would be more than grateful if you could help us continue to serve by donating and becoming an ARA member. Please support us and help us grow. Thank you!
