Valentines for Veterans Workshop

Trumbull-Porter Chapter DAR

The Trumbull-Porter Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution gathered recently to make 154 Valentine cards and 402 individually-wrapped bags of assorted regular and sugar-free candies for residents of the West Haven Veterans Hospital. This is one way the chapter can say "thank you" by acknowledging and recognizing veterans' service, sacrifice and committment to our nation's freedom.

Membership in DAR is open to any woman 18 years and older regardless of race, religion or ethnic background who can prove a direct line to an ancestor who aided in achieving American Independence. Do you qualify? Please reach out if you think you might: colleen.tpdar@gmail.com.
