They’ll also have something extra special for veterans who are living on the street.
“Because there’s some people that don’t have that opportunity to do that with the homeless people in our community which is a growing epidemic and especially with several populations being the homeless veterans. They need to be taken care of just as much because they have sacrificed a lot for this country,” Phillip Hall, Board of Directors for Family Readiness and Military Ease said.
We’re told they still need donations and volunteers to make the event a success. FRAME said to head to their Facebook to lend a hand in volunteering.
