We welcome all veterans to join us the 1st Tuesday of each month @6PM for a free meal and fellowship with other veterans. Veterans from all branches and lengths of service are invited to attend the meetings and a nursery is provided for the kids. There are guest speakers and veterans information at the meetings. Normal attendees include the Dothan Elks Lodge 1887 VSO, Alabama Veterans Affairs Social Worker, Alabama Career Center Veterans representative, Purple Heart Chapter, Hand-up Enterprise & more.
We have been working closely with Elks Lodge 1887 and the VA Social worker to place homeless veterans in permanent housing through the HUD/VASH voucher program. We have also partnered with Hand-up Enterprise to provide furniture and food for veterans.
BRAVE will be offering two $500.00 scholarships to Enterprise High School ROTC cadets at the end of the school year. Cadets will submit an essay on what it means to be BRAVE. The scholarship committee will read each one and select the awardees.
We are also working with Strings4Heros to provide instruments to Veterans who are interested in taking FREE lessons. To learn how you can help, go to Strings4Heroes.com
