The Holiday for Heroes campaign, led by the American Red Cross of North Florida, is a heartfelt initiative to honor and support military members and veterans during the holiday season. Running from Veteran’s Day through the New Year, the campaign encourages local community members to show their appreciation to those who have served our country.
One key project is the Holiday Care Package initiative, where handmade holiday stockings filled with goodies are either sent to deployment sites overseas or delivered locally to veterans in hospitals and nursing homes. It’s a way to bring some holiday joy and express gratitude to these heroes for their service and sacrifices.
Partnering with the Red Cross for this campaign is a wonderful opportunity to spread cheer and give back to veterans who have dedicated so much to the nation.
