An Army of Home Depot associates descended on the Hawkins-Reeve VFW Post 7916 this week. Their weapon: hammers, paintbrushes, and boundless energy. Their mission: improve the physical infrastructure of the Post fellowship hall and community space. Following a day of patriotic volunteerism, the Post fellowship hall once again looks vibrant!
Awarded a $2500 grant by the Home Depot Foundation and Team Depot for FY2016 the efforts of the Foundation and the Home Depot associates enhanced the physical infrastructure of the Post. The post home is a 100-year-old building that is a challenge for a not-for-profit veteran service organization to maintain.
