HOW ARE YOU THANK ING OUR LOCAL SERV I CE MEMBERS? G I VE BACK T H I S MEMOR I A L DA Y
On Memorial Day there is usually an assortment of local celebrations to remember those who have sacrificed so much for our country. However, due to COVID-19, many of those celebrations are being postponed for our safety. Unfortunately, this leaves veterans, soldiers, and their families on their own handle the challenges they face every day. So we want to highlight some of the ways you can still celebrate and show your appreciation while we’re all homebound. SHARE FAMILY EXPERIENCES If you or a loved one has served, share those experiences with your children. It’s easy for kids to be desensitized by the number of people who fought and their personal accounts as recorded in school textbooks. Educating your kids, nieces, nephews, and grandkids about what serving means to you and what it’s like teaches them why the holiday is so important in our country.
DONATE TO VA HOSPITALS Right now, veterans hospitals need your help now more than ever. While it’s not the best time to donate physical items, financial donations still go a long way. Go to www.Volunteer.VA.gov to donate directly to your local VA hospital to ensure you’re helping your community. On the “Volunteer or Donate Now” page, select the state and facility you want to help. From there, the site directs you to a billing form. With your contribution, your local VA hospital can order the supplies they desperately need to get through this stressful time. SAY ‘THANK YOU’ On Memorial Day, these two words — thank you — mean everything to our veterans and their families. You can also send thank-you letters to those who are serving overseas. If you don’t have any loved ones serving,
A Million Thanks provides a way for civilians to send letters to soldiers. Are there any ways you like to give back on Memorial Day? Let us know next time we chat because we’re always looking for ways to celebrate and give back during this unique period we’re in.
