I hope your Veterans Day weekend brought you as much joy as mine did. Whether you spent it with a veteran or attended a parade, I’d love to hear how you celebrated.
As a veteran myself, I’m pleased to share the success of our Veterans Day event over the weekend.
Over 50 local veterans headed to our headquarters to help us honor their service. It was a day filled with pride, joy, and gratitude… and a few heated cornhole matches. The atmosphere of camaraderie and respect was truly inspiring.
With your support, each veteran left with a FREE 72-Hour Survival Food Kit. Not to mention a dozen or so smiles, handshakes, and stories.
One veteran’s words about knocked us over. When asked how his day was going, he replied with a smile, “I’ve never had a bad day. Never needed to.”
His words were a testament to the unyielding spirit that defines our veterans. Not just on Veterans Day, but every single day.
In other news… I’m excited to share that our veterans event made it into USA Today’s roundup of Veteran’s Day meal and retail deals. Out of hundreds — maybe thousands — of special veteran offers, our free 72-Hour Food Kits made headlines. It was one of the few non-restaurant offers, too.
This recognition is not just ours… it’s yours too. Your support of our family-owned business lets us give back to veterans in meaningful ways. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of those who have served our nation.
Thank you for being a part of it. Your support fuels our mission to keep American families safe and to honor our veterans every day of the year.
As always, to your survival…
Frank Bates
