How Gifts From Donors Such as Smithfield Foods Help the Virginia Veteran Homeless Fund
On any given night in Virginia, approximately 450 veterans are homeless. We work to end that through the Virginia Veteran Services Foundation, which has received a $100,000 gift from Smithfield Foods, announced Oct. 2, 2020, by Gov. Ralph Northam.
