Beaver Island Veterans Project

[I'm Just The Messenger]

July 2015, Beaver Island --

The Beaver Island community, AMVETS Post 46, and local friends of veterans are proud to announce the formation of the Beaver Island Veterans Project (BIVP).

BIVP's first-year project is to invite a disabled veteran to the island for a retreat of several days. A public presentation may also be given by the visiting veteran during that time. We are currently in contact with the Gaylord and Saginaw MI VA centers to find a worthy candidate for this program.

BIVP will be hosting special fund-raisers this August and September to support this effort. AMVETS Post #46 will be accepting tax-deductible donations for the BIVP and it's programs. Volunteer support is welcome and appreciated, so please watch this space for updates.
