Veterans Day is coming up and the Employee Giving Program would like to thank the people that have served. Veterans Day recognizes all veterans, living and deceased, for their bravery, commitment, and selflessness. It is a time for reflection, gratitude, and appreciation for those that have served in times of war and peace.
