VETERANS (Dick Wilson, CHAIR) April, 2020 435-773-6974
Our Adopt-a-Veteran Program is on a temporary hold for the month of April. Ivins VA Home has restricted all outside visitors and activities. The expansion of the Program to additional homes is also delayed. We understand the caution being used during this time of possible infection of the Corona virus and look forward to the future of good health and activity by our Veterans Committee. We continue to look for additional volunteers as we expand our work.
We were approached for a donation for the Little Warrior Camp, a three-day event for children who have lost a parent in military action or who have suffered a loss due to PTSD. These children are treated to a fun-packed weekend at Camp Wapiti and it is completely free. The request was to supply backpacks for each child that will attend. The Veterans Committee discussed and voted to donate $900 to cover the costs of the 60 backpacks needed this year. Your donations make these charitable actions possible. The children thank you as we do.
Stay healthy by being aware of your surroundings and remember to reach out to our Veterans with care and honor
