Seekonk American Legion is Accepting Donations for Operation Stand Down Rhode Island - To help Homeless and At-Risk Veterans

Operation Stand Down Rhode Island’s mission is to help homeless and at-risk veterans. It has provided thousands of veterans with access to important services including health, dental, and substance abuse care, as well as employment, legal, and housing services since 1993.

Each year OSDRI holds a two-day outreach event at 1010 Hartford Ave, Johnston, RI. This year the event will be held Thursday, 9/15 and Friday, 9/16.

The Seekonk Legion Family will be setting up a table to distribute socks and underwear to the male and female Veterans who attend the event. We are accepting donations of new socks and underwear from the community. A donation box is located downstairs at the American Legion Post located at 351 Fall River Ave, Seekonk, MA. For more information you can contact us at 508-336-9822 or auxiliary311@yahoo.com.
