Theme: “Building Holiday Memories for the Future”
Christmas Holiday Gift Shops make it possible for veterans residing in VA facilities to give a gift to a loved one by means of a $10.00 gift card from either Wal-Mart, Target, or McDonalds. At Christmas time each veteran will have their gift card of choice put in a Christmas card to be given personally to a loved one or to be mailed by a VA Representative.
Easter Gift Card Program is just as important. It provides $5.00 and an Easter card to each veteran in the VA facilities, nursing homes, and rehab and assisted living facilities throughout the state. Veterans confined to their homes due to health issues are also included. To take part in this program, units need to report the number of veterans in these facilities. PLEASE NOTE: The names of the veterans are not necessary when asking how many veterans are in a nursing home, etc.
Easter cards and the $5.00 for each veteran reported will be sent to the UNIT TREASURER to be distributed by the unit.
Both of these programs are supported by donations to the V.A.& R. – 6 Point Program.
