I’m willing to bet that I’m not the only one who worries over this. That’s why I put together a list of great ideas for thanking the veterans we come across both on Veterans Day and beyond.
1. Volunteer at a veteran’s organization. The American Legion, Paralyzed Veterans of America, Habitat for Humanity and the Home Depot Foundation just to name a very few all need volunteers to help with their veterans’ outreach programs. Say thank you by giving your time.
2. Buy a meal for a homeless vet.
We’ve all seen them – they stand by the side of the road holding signs asking for food, money, warmth or all of the above. And while there’s no way to make sure their veteran claim is legitimate that shouldn’t matter. Buy the gentleman a sandwich and thank him for his service
3. Fly your flag. On our street, if someone puts up their flag for Independence Day or Memorial Day or Veteran’s Day, everyone else on the street follows suit. Start early so folks get a chance to participate.
4. Send balloons to your local recruiters office. Recruiters work a tough job with long hours and little thanks. The smart stuff they tell recruits is ignored. The promises recruits swear the recruiter said are remembered forever. Send these guys a little cheer.
