    Recognize and honor veterans and their spouses who have faithfully and sacrificially served their country. 18 homeowner veterans who received assistance were honored during 2024. Homeowners and volunteers gathered together at the end of the workday to celebrate with a flag ceremony. Two flags were presented; one flag to display outside the home and one flag, which has flown over the United States capitol building, is presented to the homeowner in a flag case with the inscription: On behalf of the United States Congress, this gift to you for your gift to us.
