THANK YOU
SPECIAL FLAG CEREMONY The generous spirit of the JPS Community shone brightly as we successfully rallied together to raise over $2,000 in support of the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) Field of Flags initiative. Our collective endeavor has not only exhibited our profound respect and gratitude towards our valiant armed forces but has also fostered a deeper sense of community and shared purpose among us. As a token of appreciation and camaraderie, the DAV will grace us with 500 flags. These flags will are ceremoniously planted our grounds creating a sea of honor and remembrance. This visual tribute will stand as a testament to the valor and sacrifices of our armed forces, reinforcing the values of service and unity that bind us as a community.
