Utah State VA Blog: March 2008

Wednesday, March 19, 2008. New Project for Salt Lake City VAMC. The Salt Lake City, Utah VAMC has started a new project. In visiting many of the homebound veterans who are too sick to make it to the hospital, they have realized many do not have 72 hour kits in case of an emergency. So they have started a drive collecting items and kits. You do not have to put together a bucket, if you only want to donate items, that is very appreciated. We will fill the buckets with the items donated from the Angels!
