The Michigan Paralyzed Veterans of America (MPVA) will be celebrating 51 years of service in Michigan during PVA Awareness Week. The MPVA is inviting all to come out and join us at our Chapter Headquarters in order to find out more about spinal cord injury or disease, MPVA services and programs, and to show support for our veterans and residents with disabilities on Thursday, April 12, 2011 from 10:00 AM - 3:00 PM. This is also a great opportunity for you or your company to strengthen your own relationship with existing clients and potential clients.

Each year around Veteran's Day, the MPVA gears up to host an event that recognizes the men and women who are serving now, have served, or have paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country.  It is our hope that those that attend the Gala leave the event feeling inspired, and most importantly, gain a sense of understanding that Veteran's Day is not the only day to honor those who serve - everyday is a day to honor those who serve.

The MPVA's 8th Annual Salute to Veterans Gala took place on Wednesday, November 9, 2011 with approximately 250 people in attendance. The event was a tremendous success as attendees were able to hear from Keynote Speaker Senior Chief Petty Officer John Quinn who recently penned his story "Someone Like Me, An Unlikely Story of Challenge and Triumph over Cerebral Palsy".

The MPVA would like to thank everyone who attended and supported the 8th Annual Salute to Veterans Gala!
