MarineParents Headquarters is Moving!
Marine Parents Office Move and Renovation
Founder Tracy Della Vecchia
Dear Marine Corps Families,This is Tracy Della Vecchia, the founder of MarineParents.com and The Care Package ProjectTM. We need your help in a huge way to renovate space for our office.
Our landlord asked all tenants in our building to move by May 1. I asked to extend to July 1. We had to find new office space and it's been an incredible challenge. We have so much space here and spread out to even more during packing day--it will not be possible to afford the same.
We found space just a few warehouses down from our current location. I signed the lease and we got a really great deal from some very generous folks again. The building needs a huge amount of work for what will be used as the office space and I need your help making that happen. We have done a fundraiser to collect funds for materials required for renovation. In addition to asking for donations and all of the labor will be donated.
I would like to take a moment to thank Jeffrey Smith, Bob LeMone, and Jay Burchfield for providing our current office space to us for 2 1/2 years at a greatly reduced price. Thank you; your contribution to our efforts helped to assure more of our dollars go into our Outreach Programs such as The Care Package ProjectTM, Purple Heart Family SupportTM, and OperationPALTM.
We have another journey ahead of us and once again, we'll move forward and succeed with the help of our Marine families and local community. Thanks for taking this next journey with us, and I look forward to working with you!
