Gift-a-Vet Brightens the Holidays for Veterans
The New England Center and Home for Veterans is grateful for the generous outpouring of support for this year’s Gift-a-Vet program. A total of 324 Veteran had their wish lists sponsored this year, which meant that every resident of the NECHV was remembered this holiday season. We are thankful to all Gift-a-Vet sponsors for the meaningful impact they had on the holidays!
Gift-a-Vet is the holiday gift giving program for Veterans being served by the NECHV. The program coordinates holiday gifts for transitional residents and their children, as well as Veterans in the permanent on-site living spaces and Veteran families served by the Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) program.
Our corporate wish list sponsors are an integral part of the program’s success. We extend our warm thanks to them for a wonderful year!
