ONGOING COMMUNITY SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES
Let's show our appreciation for all of those that have served our country by writing letters to our veterans. All of those who have served deserve to be thanked for their commitment, sacrifice, and bravery. By definition, a veteran is someone who has served our country in the past. Share a little bit about yourself and talk about life and interests.
