PHOENIX – Oct. 8, 2013 – Vantage Mobility International (VMI) continued its backing of disabled U.S. veterans and Paralyzed Veterans of America by supporting their annual Americana Gala, which took place on Wednesday, Oct. 2, at the Capital Hilton in Washington D.C. at 6:30 p.m. The annual gala honored individuals and organizations that have supported the PVA, and ultimately, over 25 million courageous American veterans.
“VMI is honored to support the men and women who served in our Armed Forces,” said Monique McGivney, director of corporate communication at VMI. “VMI’s Operation Independence Program and Paralyzed Veterans of America share the same mission – to help our disabled veterans live independent lives by educating them on how to access proper care, benefits and jobs. We enjoyed the opportunity to empower veterans by sponsoring the annual Paralyzed Veterans of America’s Americana Gala, which was an amazing evening.”
