In these times of partisan division and strife, it is very important to recognize our right to free speech, ensuring that we can always stand up and speak out for our beliefs.
As you enjoy your time with friends and family during your 4th of July celebration, don’t forget to pause and appreciate the men and women who have and continue to secure your freedoms by serving our great country. Let’s all celebrate the veterans who keep us safe and protect the freedoms that we all take for granted.
Did You Know?
You may be surprised to learn that not all veterans have access to VA benefits. This is where Veterans Place comes in. We provide the services and benefits veterans need to fill in that gap. Veterans Place is a lifeline to food, clothing, shelter, and supportive services.
With your support, we can provide veterans with Transitional Housing and resources that include employment opportunities to help them lead full and productive lives.

This 4th of July, we ask that you make a donation to Veterans Place in honor of the veterans who have served our country, protected your freedoms, and now need your help.
