honoring those who serve

Veterans and Military Discount for November

As we enter into a month of thanksgiving, thanks are certainly due to the men and women of our communities who have served and are serving to protect our country, and therefore, us.

We realize that there are hundreds of ways to thank our Veterans and active Military, and hope that you will take every opportunity to creatively do so this month. Simple acts of gratitude, the kindness of listening, acceptance and inclusion in your daily life will enhance the lives of those who have served, and communicate appreciation for their sacrifice. Supporting and encouraging active duty military personnel is an opportunity to express gratitude, as well.

One Way We’re Celebrating Veterans and Military This Month

As a token of our gratitude for those who have served or are currently serving in the US or Canadian Armed Forces, we are offering a special November Veterans Month Rebate*. Individuals who are serving or have served in the US or Canadian Armed Forces who sign a contract in November for the installation of a beautiful Isaiah Industries metal roof will receive a $500 Factory Rebate after the roof has been completed. The roof installation does not have to be completed in November to receive the rebate.

9 Ways to Support and Honor Veterans

From the archives of United We Serve, the National Service blog, here’s a list of 9 ways to support and honor veterans.

1. Visit a wounded veteran at the hospital.
2. Offer your home repair skills to a veteran or military family.
3. Create an online neighborhood user group that can be used to share information about neighborhood activities, recommend reliable repair companies, and find babysitters. An online group may also help identify the needs of your neighbors.
4. Volunteer your financial, legal, or career expertise.
5. Deliver a meal or care packages to veterans.
6. Help a veteran tell their story through a project such as the Veteran’s History Project. You can download a VHP field kit from the Library of Congress website.
7. Volunteer with an organization, such as Canine Companions for Independence, that provide therapy dogs to veterans.
8. Offer a vet a ride by volunteering with the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) organization, which provides free transportation to men and women unable to travel to VA medical facilities on their own.
9. Say “Thank You.”
