Atlanta military charity

When asked why they chose the medical field, most doctors will talk about their passion for helping people. This is certainly true for Dr. John LeRoy. But as fulfilling as it is to see the smile on a patient’s face when they feel confident for the first time in years, he also enjoys helping those who are beyond the reach of his cosmetic surgery office. That’s why he began holding his social media charity contests four years ago. And today, the tradition continues with his Summer 2017 Charity Contest, focusing this time on veterans and military personnel.

How Dr. John LeRoy’s Charity Contest Works

Our charity contests have two stages: nomination and voting. Between now and August 4^th, 2017, anyone can nominate their favorite nonprofit organization via Dr. John LeRoy’s Facebook page. When all the nominations are in, we’ll evaluate them and select four finalists. These finalists will be announced on August 7^th, and you’ll then be able to vote for a winner until August 18^th, 2017. The winning charity will be announced on August 21^st, 2017 and will receive a $1,000 donation from our office. It’s as simple as that!

Each charity contest we host also has a specific theme. For instance, our last contest focused on children’s charities. The theme for our Summer 2017 contest is local veterans and military personnel. All of us at the office of John L. LeRoy, MD are grateful for all our past and present military service members, and we have chosen to make them the very deserving focus of our latest charity contest.

     • The charity must hold a 501(c)(3) non-profit distinction or be a valid and charitable crowdfunding page.
     • The charity must be in Georgia.
     • Each nominator may only nominate one charity.
     • The charity must contribute to a greater good, identifiable through a published mission statement.
     • The charity may not be a previous charity contest winner (recent winners include The Tree House Inc., Remembering Ruthie Rescue, Calvary Children’s Home, and Little Nuggets Rescue).

3. Return to Dr. LeRoy’s Facebook page between August 7^th and August 18^th, 2017 to vote for a winner. Each person can only vote once, so tell your friends and family to vote, too!

As a strong believer in paying it forward, Dr. John LeRoy is honored to be able to serve others in his community (through both plastic surgery and charity contests like this one), and he would like to personally invite you to participate. By nominating and voting for a deserving organization, you’ll be able to make a difference in the lives of people who have sacrificed for us all.
