Dinner & Dollars

Each December, Grandstrand/Horry, South Carolina, Chapter 925 hosts a holiday dinner for veterans who need help, as well as for organizations that help needy veterans. This year eight such veterans and five organizations were invited to dinner at the Golden Corral, and each was presented with a $250 gift card.

Shortly after receiving our charter in May 2003, our members made it a goal to help veterans in need, as well as the needy families of deceased veterans. To enable us to do that, we started to raise money by offering poppies for donations. Those fundraising events take place during the Memorial Day and Veterans Day weekends at our local Sam’s Club. 

It is a pleasure for our chapter to help others—not only during the holiday season, but throughout the year.
