NWU Student Veteran Organization

Thank you to all the brave men and women who have served our country, past and present.
Thank you to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you for the years spent away from your loved ones. Thank you for returning home and braving the struggles of PTSD and other illnesses related. Thank you for all the things my civilian mind cannot comprehend. In the ends words are not enough to say Thank You, but I can only hope we as a country continue to remember the sacrifices made from our veterans, and show the love, admiration, respect and appreciation that they so deeply deserve.

When/if you see a Veteran today, shake their hand and thank them. They deserve it.

To those in the group who have/ are serving, thank you.

Thank you to all who donated to our Food Drive this past week!!
We ended up collecting enough food/ house hold items to fill four boxes!!

Best part of it all, the pantry was already full, so they’re going to use our food later on as it begins to empty.

We are grateful for these Veterans past service, and I am happy we were able to help out a little bit!!

Thank you all and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Today we begin our Food Drive for Heroes Into Homes!!!

Come donate some food for our previously Homeless Veterans, you won’t regret it!!!
Below is our flyer and what the foundation is looking for!

Today is a day to remember the courage and strength that people have. Thank you to ALL that have served and are currently serving in the military and protecting our country.

SVO is grateful for you and your service. YOU ROCK.

Patty will be greatly missed by our SVO, not only for her work processing our VA education benefits but also her kind and caring attitude.
