3 Ways to Honor Veterans On Veterans Day
We want to invite everyone to join us in celebrating Veterans Day this year, by making time to honor the heroes who have served our country. It's important that veterans know how important and appreciated they are -- and to hear this message coming from civilians.
Whether you have a few hours or a few minutes, here are several ways you can celebrate veterans:
1. Volunteer to Help Veterans
One of the best ways to show veterans you appreciate their service is to volunteer helping them, either face-to-face or virtually. There are many opportunities to help veterans locally. Consider the needs of veterans in your community and how you can help.
2. Reach Out to Veterans Near and Far
Make sure veterans don't feel forgotten. Reach out to a veteran you know or someone new. Sharing your appreciation for their service is an amazing way to honor them. You can learn from veterans' experiences by listening to them. The Veteran Pen Pal Project gives citizens the opportunity to send a kind, appreciative letter to a veteran. Consider consistently showing your appreciation by reaching out to veterans near and far.
3. Learn about Veterans' Contributions
One way that we can all show appreciation for veterans is by listening and learning from their experiences. We can also do our own research to find out more about veterans' contributions in defending America on a world stage. So many veterans have sacrificed for the freedoms we enjoy, hence, it's important to remember why they served.
Honoring veterans comes in many shapes and forms. So, please consider how you might like to show your appreciation to these brave heroes, who deeply deserve our respect and support.
