VETERANS (Dick Wilson, CHAIR) June, 2020 435-773-6974
Our commitment to our veterans remains strong. In May we contacted five Retirement/Care facilities to check on our veterans who may have needs during these trying times. We checked back with the VA Ivins Home to see if they had a wish list and found that indeed they did. We have been asked to supply Word Search and Crossword puzzle books and also two personal DVD players and five CD players to supplement what they currently have. The Meadows requested both regular candy and sugar-free candies as well as Word Search books and puzzles. We are adding a dozen decks of cards to each request. Shopping is completed and deliveries made by the end of May. We will continue to contact homes in June to help our area homes that may have veterans in need. The expenses for April and May are being covered by a generous donation to the Veterans Committee by the New Promise Lutheran Church of St George. This grant of $2,000 was given to us to help local veterans and is a wonderful gift during these days when fundraising is not possible. We need your help in staying in touch with our local veterans.
If you know of a veteran or veteran’s family that needs help, please contact us so we can provide assistance. As always, reach out to our Veterans with care and honor.
