Goodwill Manasota Veterans Services

We were honored to have Todd Hughes, Program Manager at Goodwill Manasota Veterans Services, speak at the Sarasota MOAA today! Todd shared valuable insights into the multiple programs offered by us, including the American Veteran Families Program, Lutz Buddy Up, and VA Coffee Socials. These initiatives are making a significant impact in our veteran community, offering crucial support and resources to those who have served our country. A big thank you to Todd and our team at Goodwill Manasota for their dedication to our veterans! 🇺🇸 #VeteranSupport #GoodwillVeteransServices #MilitaryOfficersAssociation

🇺🇸 When a Veteran honors you with their story of service and of sacrifice … listen to them.   Will Fischbach, our Board Chair and my best friend, shared his story with me many years ago and it paved the path forward to this morning when we reopened Goodwill of Central and Northern Arizona's 1st Veteran & Military Family Career Center in Phoenix – and dedicated it proudly to him 🌟.   Will served our great Nation as a prosecutor in the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General’s Corps. He finished tours of duty in Iraq, Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, and the Republic of Korea. He was honorably discharged in 2008 at the rank of Major and is a recipient of the Bronze Star Medal🎖.   Our veteran services are provided by vets for vets and their families. Our staff understand the unique experiences and hurdles individuals may face returning to the civilian workforce after their military career comes to close. It is OUR honor to serve you.

We are thrilled to announce that Goodwill Manasota Veterans Services is expanding its Veterans Services Program in DeSoto County. This significant milestone represents our ongoing commitment to providing essential resources and support to our veterans, ensuring they receive the recognition, assistance, and opportunities they deserve. Our expanded program will offer even more comprehensive services to help veterans navigate their post-service lives with dignity and success. We are dedicated to advocating for and assisting veterans, and this expansion allows us to further our mission and reach more veterans in need. We are grateful for the continued support from our community and partners. Together, we can make a positive impact on the lives of those who have bravely served our country. #Veterans #Community #Support #Advocacy #GoodwillManasota #VeteransServices https://lnkd.in/ddXAb_K6

Honoring Heroes on Memorial Day 🇺🇸 Today, we honor and remember the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. At Goodwill, we are grateful for their service and commitment to protecting our freedoms.
