Second Quarter Donor Highlights

The Virginia Veterans Services Foundation is grateful for the continued generosity of donors who help strengthen programs serving veterans across the Commonwealth. During the second quarter, several partners made meaningful contributions that directly support veterans and their families.

American Legion Halifax County Post 8 made a generous contribution in support of Operation Holiday Spirit at the Davis & McDaniel Virginia Veterans Care Center in Roanoke. This initiative supports residents living within the Virginia Department of Veterans Services Care Centers by providing gifts, activities, and special care during the holiday season. Their support helps ensure that veterans residing at the facility experience a meaningful and joyful holiday season, while also helping meet the needs of indigent residents and supporting special unit projects that enrich daily life for those who have served.

PMRS, Inc. continues to be a valued and consistent supporter of the Virginia Veterans and Family Support (VVFS) program. Through their ongoing generosity, PMRS helps ensure that Virginia veterans and their families have access to critical services and assistance when they need it most. The Virginia Veterans Services Foundation is grateful for PMRS’ continued commitment to strengthening support systems for veterans across the Commonwealth.

The Virginia Veterans Services Foundation was also honored to be selected as a beneficiary of the Dominion Energy Charity Classic “Out of Bounds” Concert, with proceeds from the event distributed through Dominion Energy and its partners at The Broadberry Entertainment Group. The Dominion Energy Charity Classic brings the community together through sports, music, and philanthropy, supporting organizations that are making a meaningful difference. Proceeds from the concert will help the Foundation continue its mission of supporting Virginia’s veterans and the programs that serve them throughout the Commonwealth.

We are deeply grateful to these partners and to all who continue to invest in the wellbeing of Virginia’s veterans. Their generosity makes it possible to expand services, support care centers, and provide critical assistance to those who have served our nation.
