Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)
Question:

Why do you do what you do?
Answer:

Yes, we understand we have Veterans Day in the fall, and Memorial Day in the spring. But our service men and women sacrifice their time and safety every single day of the year, to preserve our freedoms.

At many homes, there is an empty seat for one who is serving, or one who made the ultimate sacrifice for our Country. We honor our veterans every day. And we think there is no better time to express our apprecation, than during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

We hope you will join us at any of our 700+ participating locations, to show our veterans and their families - that we will not forget. We will never forget.
