JMWristbands is pleased to announce that the VHIP table will be continued on through the winter tour! An educational booth will be set up at the venue at each show where people can learn more about VHIP, and sign up to join the VHIP online community. We are looking for people who want to help out at the booth, and are giving you guys the first opportunity to get on the volunteer list! If you are interested in volunteering, you can sign up here.

Few people probably know that John Mayer has cofounded a program called VHIP (Veterans Health Partnership) w. NCIRE. And I'm sure that many of you have not heard that $1 from each ticket on The US Tour is donated to fund this program.

VHIP, which is going to support specific health needs of post-9/11 Veterans and aims to ease the transition from deployment to civilian life, is funded entirely by Mayer and this tour.

Even though the startop money has come straight out of John's pocket - quite a large amount of the donations are thus coming from fans. Either from donations, via. Volunteer work or via. Ticketsales. In other words MUSIC Lovers and JM Fans are doing a difference for US veterans.

At the US leg of The Born And Raised World Tour you will be able to meet up with fans like myself. I was working at the show in Atlanta w. a lovely group of fans and will also be working tonight in Albuquerque and tomorrow at the show in Phoenix. 

Come over to the booth - say hello and while your there - have your picture taken in front of the Paradise Album cover and get a free JM Wristband - just by showing your support to the cause.

See you there...
