The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 367 of Royal Palm Beach once again collected items to donate to the homeless veterans facility located at the VA Medical Center in West Palm Beach. The unit members have given more $250 worth of socks and underwear and more than $250 worth of easy-to-open food items and hygiene items. This year, Auxiliary Unit 367 was fortunate to have the students at Planet Kids at Seminole Pratt Whitney Road and Northlake Blvd. help with this project, as well as the workers at Mullinax Ford, who gave donations to Spence Wegner to add to the unit’s efforts. Some of the women took time to meet with the young children at Planet Kids to sit and read a book or two and also answer many questions. The members of Auxiliary Unit 367 hope that these joint efforts will help to make it possible for the homeless veterans to have a more pleasant holiday season. Many needy veterans go to the homeless facility to get food and clothing items, as well as be able to shower, do laundry and rest.
