Adrian, MI – WLEN Radio will host their 16th Annual Thank a Vet on Thursday, November 11th.
This day is in celebration of Veterans Day and is an event to raise funds and awareness for homeless and other veterans in need in Lenawee County. Money will be raised for the ‘Veterans Dire Need Fund’… distributed through Housing Help of Lenawee.
WLEN staff, 95.3fm WQTE County, local veterans’ organizations and area business people will stand curbside and collected funds to support local veterans; these funds are distributed throughout the year to local veterans for assistance with rent, mortgage payments to avoid foreclosure, utility bills, rental facilities to store possessions when they are displaced, transportation stipends and for things as simple as a pair of boots to secure employment.
To date over $280,000 has been raised in this event and distributed to local veterans in Lenawee County. For more information, contact WLEN Radio.
Tune into our local and state newscasts, anytime day or night, for this story and more.
