December was a month of service, celebration, and advocacy for Mission Roll Call. As we embraced the season of giving, we focused on sharing stories of veterans and their families making a difference in their communities. From supporting holiday traditions to shedding light on key issues facing veterans, we remained committed to amplifying their voices and promoting meaningful change.
Service to others is at the heart of the veteran community, and this month’s stories reflected that commitment. Whether through giving back or uplifting those in need, December reminded us of the profound impact veterans continue to have on the world around them.
