Programs and results
What we aim to solve
Our local veterans groups (DAV, American Legion, VFW, etc.)have substantial unfilled needs for their local members, but they only receive a pittance from their national organizations. Our group of 100+ unpaid members, GlenLakes veterans and friends, can fill that void, mainly by obtaining sponsorships and donations for an annual Nature Coast Veterans Day Golf Scramble. We also meet monthly for speakers on a variety of educational topics relevant to veterans and seniors, e.g., benefits, health, local politics, etc.
