Community Outreach Report

There are several great opportunities to serve our community in the coming weeks.

Post 43 Day of Service

For this year's National Day of Service, we will be distributing water to the unhoused of Hollywood due to the recent heatwave. Members are welcome to donate water or participate in distribution, or both.

You can also donate funds to Venmo, @sasilva to help with the purchasing of water.

Thank you in advance for your service to the unhoused of our community.

UKRAINE ACTION

From our Post 43 brother, Christopher Loverro:

"I’m back in Ukraine and one of the biggest needs we keep hearing from soldiers on the front lines is uniforms. The word on the street everywhere we go is military issue winter clothing is on top on their need list (as far as the individual soldier level) . Every unit we speak to is desperate to get the stuff now because it’s gonna get freezing cold here in about a month and these guys are fighting in the trenches. The government doesn’t have what they need so they are relying on donations from people like us."

They must be CLEAN and SERVICEABLE. Please send ONLY what we are requesting.

US military winter clothing:

  • ACU‘s and BDU’s

  • gore-Tex top and bottom

  • winter boots

  • winter gloves

  • fleece caps/headgear

  • thermals top and bottom

  • winter socks
