York, Pa. - State Representative Kevin Schreiber's office and United Fiber and Data came together to present a donation to Veterans Helping Hands in York. The money from the donation will go toward the organization's general operating fund to help organizers pay for utilities.
Veterans Helping Hands provides food, clothing and shelter to veterans. The president of Veterans helping hands says Veterans Affairs may take time to get their services to clients, but her organization can offer immediate assistance.
"There's a lot of veterans who don't know what they're entitled to when it comes to their benefits, when it comes to the services that the VA offers," said Sandie Walker, President of Veterans Helping Hands. "We're actually a bridge between the VA and veterans who don't know what's out there."
Walker also said support from the community and Representative Schreiber allows Veterans Helping Hands to keep offering its services to those in need.
