Rutland Elks Lodge presented Veteran Andrew a WELCOME HOME KIT on February 17th. Among the items were bedding, Air Fryer, Microwave, Rug, curtains, towels, and a plethora of household essentials. Our thanks to Paul from HUD VASH Social Worker, Health Care for Homeless Veterans, Dept of Veterans Affairs for reaching out to our Lodge and for his assistance in helping Andrew with housing.
Welcome Home Kits are funded by the Elks National Veterans Service Commission
Our first kit was presented right before Christmas, with this being Rutland Lodge 345’s 2nd Welcome Home Kit. We look forward to assisting other veterans moving into housing.
