Veterans Day: Heroes at Home for the Holidays
Veterans Day: Heroes at Home for the Holidays
Did you know that according to the 2014 U.S. Census, there are over 21.8 million veterans in the United States?
Veterans Day is the day we honor the men and women who served in our military and still serve our nation. This is also the perfect day to really remind others about the true purpose of the day and to understand the sacrifice service members and their families make year-round. This is a great day to thank those men and women.
My father is a veteran and I grew up moving around as my father was promoted. We lived in several places and it is safe to say that upbringing really formed me into the person that I am today.
Sears’ Heroes at Home for the Holidays program
Sears is bringing back its Heroes at Home program for the holiday season as part of its long-standing commitment to supporting veterans and military families.
