August 2026 DIY: Military Support Kits

Military Heroes Support Foundation is dedicated to honoring and supporting our nation’s military heroes, veterans and their families. Through programs and resources that provide meaningful assistance and connection, the organization works to give back to those who have sacrificed in service to our country.
For this month’s DIY project, in honor of 9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance, volunteers are being asked to collect items and assemble Care Kits for Military Heroes Support Foundation to help support local veterans and military families.
