As you may know, our residents have been
very gracious in donating goods and money
to Veterans Village at March Air Reserve Base
in Riverside the past two holiday seasons.
The Village has one and two bedroom
apartments for some individuals and
families, and in addition, they can house up
to 100 single men in an older barracks. The
barracks rooms have no kitchen facilities,
and they are especially grateful to receive
small appliances of coffee pots, crock
pots, electric skillets, etc. This facility is a
transitional veteran program, and residents
usually stay a maximum of six months. So
as a result of their turnover, they are in need
of small apartment-type furniture. If you
have items you would like to donate, please
contact Jackie Peterson at (951) 926-0152 or
Quinn Hawley at (951) 325-2600.
The volunteer coordinator recently gave us
a list of items that would be especially useful.
They include:
• Metal twin bed frames
• New twin mattress
• Nightstands
• Desk lamps
• George Foreman grills
• Hot plates
• Electric skillets
• Crock pot
• Toaster
• Coffee maker & coffee
• Pots/pans
• Dishes & silverware
• New twin size sheets
• New bath towels
Thank you for supporting our community
and veterans!
