Help For Our Vets

Over the last several years our local American Legion Post 427 has been instrumental in providing transportation to and from Little Rock for our veterans medical appointments. They use volunteer drivers and a van that was bought using GIF funds to accomplish the service. They now find themselves with an old van and no funds available to purchase another, so they can continue this much used and much needed shuttle. So last night, Senator-elect Larry Teague and I attended their meeting and offered our help to orchestrate and donate to a fund raising effort to purchase a new van. We are both strong believers in getting this done and keeping this program running smoothly for the true heroes in our midst. So don't be surprised if we come calling for your help with this project.
