Our First Year in Review

Dear Friends,

As 2025 comes to an end, we are deeply grateful for your support to Gold Star Families and the mission of the Gold Star Services Network (GSSN). Your collaboration this year has brought comfort, connection, and caring.

As we approach Giving Tuesday on December 2nd, we want to remind you that our Give Butter campaign will match dollar for dollar any donations we receive on our website. If you are interested in donating, simply go to: https://www.goldstarservicesnetwork.org/donate

Here are some 2025 GSSN Moments Your Donations Have Contributed to:

·The Coca-Cola 600 NASCAR Event:

Through GSSN sponsorship, FN Jeffrey Svobada, USCG, was honored in March before thousands of NASCAR fans at Charlotte Raceway, NC, where his name was proudly displayed on the windshield of Car #8 driven by racing icon, Kyle Busch.

·Annual Belmont Bronx Reunion:

GSSN kicked-off a powerful three-day seaside event in June with over 50 attendees at the Madison Resorts in Wildwood, NJ (Best New Hotel in the Country-named by USA Today) generating significant social media awareness and vital support for our mission.

·The NJ Run for the Fallen:

GSSN partnered with Madison Resorts in September to donate rooms for Gold Star Families participating in this annual state-wide run hosted by active military personnel. GSSN volunteers attended events throughout the weekend in support of lost loved ones.

·Gold Star Moms VIP DC Trip:

GSSN is proudly sponsoring transportation for a group of Gold Star Mothers traveling to Washington, D.C. in December for a special VIP holiday visit to the White House and Capitol.

Thank you for helping us honor our fallen heroes. Your support – no matter what the size - truly makes a difference. Giving Tuesday on December 2nd is the perfect time to make an impact by donating at: https://www.goldstarservicesnetwork.org/donate
