The week of February 14 each year is your opportunity to say thank you to a special group of men and women, the more than 9 million Veterans of the U.S. armed services who are cared for in
Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) medical centers, outpatient clinics, domiciliaries, and nursing homes. During the National Salute, VA invites individuals, Veterans groups, military
personnel, civic organizations, businesses, schools, local media, celebrities, and sports stars to participate in a variety of activities at the VA medical centers. The activities and
events include special ward visits and valentine distributions; photo opportunities; school essay contests; special recreation activities and Veteran recognition programs. The week also
provides an opportunity for the community to become acquainted with the volunteer opportunities within the medical center. Contact our Center for Development and Civic Engagement at
989-497-2500, extension 13360, to discover the wonderful things you, your group or organization can do to salute America’s Heroes.
