Holiday Cards for veterans

Holiday Cards for Veterans
At home
​On your own pace

Veterans homes assisted
Greeting cards made and sent last year

Problem: 
Veterans are those who served our country, who protect our freedom and peace. They deserve our recognition everyday. But many of them live in veterans homes, alone, without families. They need our support, especially during family holidays such as Thanksgiving, and the winter holidays. These times may be pretty lonely for them.

​Solution: 
Our members made, colored, and handwrote over 200 Thanksgiving cards and 300 Happy Holidays cards for Veterans. These cards were sent to different Veterans homes in New York state.

Impact: 
We hope that these cards found their way to the meal trays of veterans on holidays, and hopefully, they will put smiles on the faces of these retirees. But most of all, we believe that this small act of kindness will make our volunteers better members of society who, by spending hours on creating these cards, recognize the sacrifice of these individuals.​
