individual and corporate donors and Veterans and their families who need services and

support.

Our vision is to empower and improve the lives of Veterans and their families by

providing assistance and support.

We seek to educate the community about the needs of Veterans and opportunities to

meet these needs. We want Veterans to know we care and also hope to inspire others

to care.

Serve meals at VA hospitals and clinics

Provide luncheons at transitional housing facilities

Offer holiday meals to Veterans at home, in transitional housing, and in shelters

We solicit new and used clothing from generous members of the community and al-

so corporate donors to:

Provide suits and business clothing through our Suits for Success program to Veter-

ans participating in the Veterans Treatment Court Programs

Supply new shoes and clothing through donations from generous corporations

Provide gently used clothing to Veterans in shelters and transitional housing

through clothing drives

We help provide shelter by

With the support and cooperation of the Boston Bruins and the Bruins Foundation, Disabled and Limbless Veterans, Inc. has taken advantage of the fabulous oppor-tunity and participated in a 50/50 raffle at a Bruins home game for two years run-ning. With the help of over 20 volunteers

the event generated funds which helped support over 600 veterans and their families.

As a major sponsor of the Boston Celtics and the Boston Bruins, Ar-bella Insurance Group generously pledged a donation for every Celtic 3 point basket on home court and every Bruin Power Play goal on home ice throughout the season.

Annual DLV Motorcycle Run Our major fundraising event is a motorcycle run hosted by the American Legion Post 273 In Bur-lington MA. Its popularity has virtually doubled every year since its inception. With the coopera-tion and support of American Le-

gion Post 273, generous sponsors such as Eastern Bank, New Balance, Dadgar Insurance and many others and with count-less volunteers, the event is extremely successful bringing us financial donations we could not operate without. Supporting Our Veteran's License Plates In order to raise funds and increase awareness of the needs of our Veterans, Disabled and Limbless Veterans, Inc. is working with the Massachu-setts Department of Transpor-tation to offer a Massachu-setts “Supporting Our Veter-ans” license plate. Orders are open to the public. Forty dol-lars of the plate fee is tax deducible and will be returned to the organization. www.DLVMA.org

Suits for Success

Sponsored by

Annually Disabled and Limbless Veterans, Inc. holds its Suits for

Success Clothing Drive, proudly supporting Norfolk County Vet-

erans Treatment Court. We collect slightly used men’s and

women’s business clothing including suits, slacks, dresses, dress

shirts and blouses, shoes and accessories so that Veterans par-

ticipating in the court program can be properly attired during

court appearances and employment interviews.

New Balance has been at our side from the beginning donating hundreds of tee shirts, sweat shirts and running shoes, which Disabled and Limbless Veterans delivered to Veterans homeless shelters in Bos-ton, Worcester and Lowell and the Veteran's Treatment Court.
