At the end of this week, 11 November 2023, we honor those who have served to keep us free. Many have given of themselves so our families and theirs have a safe place to live.
I, too, am a veteran who gladly served for years. I’ve noticed that people often wonder how to connect with or show gratitude for those who have given so much to protect them and the country. I offer three ideas to help Anyone looking to connect with veterans.
The first way to connect with Those who have served might be to attend a Veterans Day parade or ceremony in your community to show your support and appreciation for veterans. As you notice veterans, thank them for their service. They feel good to hear it, and you will feel good for saying it.
If you have the time and inclination, volunteer at a local VA hospital or VA clinic to help veterans needing medical care or assistance. A few hours a week would make a significant difference in the lives of veterans still carrying the scars of combat.
Offer to attend a job fair or career event designed for veterans to help them transition back to civilian life. Helping these Vets find a new job is a great way to bring them back into their home community.
Helping those who have helped keep us all safe is a wonderful way to show a thank you.
