Every Reservist knows the feeling: serving twice as hard to get half the recognition. Too often, America’s Reserve Component is treated as an afterthought — in policy, in funding, and in national priorities.

That’s why ROA exists.

For more than a century, ROA has fought so our servicemembers never have to fight alone. And this year, your support helped fuel major advocacy wins — from protecting missions at risk to advancing reforms that strengthen readiness, benefits, and family stability for those who serve.

As we approach Giving Tuesday, I’m inviting you to stand with us again as we prepare for the next 12 months of legislative battles. Because the truth is simple:

Without ROA, America’s reservists have no unified voice in Washington.
With ROA, they have a seat at the table — and a defender they can trust.

Next week, you’ll hear more about how your donation directly drives results. Until then, thank you for being part of the only association dedicated solely to the Reserve Components.

Respectfully,
Dr. Peggy Wilmoth
Major General, USA (Ret.)
President, Reserve Organization of America
