May is Military Appreciation Month

The month of May is set aside as a special time to honor our past and present military service members and their families for their contributions to our country. There are many activities you can do to observe the occasion! Here are some ideas we came up with:

-Learn about contributions of the U.S. Armed Forces through study or by visiting a historical monument.
-Write letters (or emails) of appreciation to military veterans in your life.
-Start a drive to provide items of comfort to those who are in veterans homes.
-Invite a service member to come and speak before an organization you are affiliated with.
-Share information about National Military Appreciation Month on social networking sites.

How will you show your appreciation?
