The Disabled National Veterans Foundation (DVNF) announced in September 2011 that a truckload of needed supplies was shipped to a relief distribution site in Austin, Texas in response to the damage from the recent rash of deadly fires that destroyed 1,700 homes. The DVNF is coordinating with the American Legion Post #83 in Austin to distribute the supplies to area veterans.
"We are proud to support veterans in Texas and several other states where this month we are shipping more than two million dollars worth of basic, everyday supplies that too many veterans need - just to live".
"Whenever a natural disaster such as the fires that destroyed Texas homes and caused so much damage occur, we are grateful that we can step up and play a role by sending needed relief," said Precilla Wilkewitz, President of DVNF.
"Veterans facing problems everyday are especially hit hard in times like this in Texas due to the strain on already limited resources by groups that help those in need. The extra burden can be too much at a time when their need for supplies is even greater."
The DVNF truckload includes essential daily items such as clothing for men and women, personal hygiene products, blankets, water and sports water bottles.
The American Legion Post in Austin will work to distribute the DVNF truckload from a storage unit that the group is using to collect needed supplies.
"We are proud to support veterans in Texas and several other states where this month we are shipping more than two million dollars worth of basic, everyday supplies that too many veterans need - just to live," said Wilkewitz.
