Day of Caring Derby Day preps with Veterans Outreach of PA

Greystone's Derby Day fundraiser, set for May 3, focuses on supporting local veterans through Veterans Outreach of PA's initiatives. This event represents the organization's largest fundraising effort each year, with last year's contributions directed toward a tiny home community and a graduation program for veterans. Linda Johnston, a representative from Renewal by Andersen, noted that the event's support has successfully led to two veterans graduating from their program. The funds raised this year will aid in the upkeep and expansion of Veteran's Grove, which provides resources and housing for veterans. Johnston, whose family has a history of military service, emphasizes the critical role of community involvement in sustaining these efforts.

The event not only highlights the challenges faced by veterans but also celebrates their achievements and resilience. Tickets for Derby Day can be purchased online, and donations are encouraged from those who cannot attend. The initiative exemplifies a strong commitment to veterans' welfare within the community.
