3 Ways to Honor Memorial Day with Goodwill
Memorial Day, to some, is an unofficial first-day summer. But for others, it’s a day of remembrance for those who have lost a loved one in the line of duty. It’s a day to celebrate their legacy, courage, and service to our country. Here are three ways to honor Memorial Day with Goodwill:
- Donate
It’s no secret that your donations help change the lives of people with disabilities or other barriers to employment but did you know that they also help fund programs like VetWorthy? Vet Worthy provides military veterans, spouses, children and caretakers with connections to career and financial planning, job development, and skills training support. In addition, military families are connected to the necessary community resources such as mental health counseling, housing assistance, food assistance, and legal aid. The program specifically targets post 9/11 veterans and female veterans; however, it is open to any veteran with a discharge other than dishonorable.

Whether it is an American flag to wave during a parade or even these red, white, and blue butterfly wings there is something for everyone.
