A meaningful morning connecting with Veterans and their Families at the Globe - Miami Elks Lodge in Globe, Arizona. Stories, laughter, and camaraderie made the gathering truly special.
Veterans shared memories of service, duty stations, and experiences from around the world, reminding us that the bonds forged through military service last a lifetime.
No Veteran in a rural community should ever feel isolated or forgotten. Our gatherings build lasting friendships, strengthen connections, and ensure no Veteran faces life’s challenges alone.
Our discussion covered VA healthcare, earned benefits, and using My HealtheVet to communicate with VA medical providers. We also reviewed Community Care referrals, the 72-hour emergency notification requirement, and coordinating with the VA Traveling Veteran Coordinator before extended travel.
We’re deeply grateful to our dedicated volunteers who traveled to Globe and continue answering the call to ensure every Veteran feels supported, valued, and remembered.
