Alpine Township Culver's Hosts Fund Raisers for Vietnam Veterans of America



The Vietnam Veterans of America Michael J. Bost Chapter 18 held a fundraiser on Tuesday evening at the Alpine Township Culver's, 4280 Alpine Ave., Comstock Park, Michigan. The local Culver's donated a certain percentage of purchases made to the local chapter of the Vietnam Veterans.
Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) is the only national Vietnam veterans organization congressionally chartered and exclusively dedicated to Vietnam-era veterans and their families.

Chapter 18 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, received its VVA charter on April 9, 1982. From its beginnings nearly 30 years ago, Chapter 18 has been involved in a wide array of community-service activities. That includes taking part in a local MS Walk, sponsoring the appearance of the Moving Wall, doing school presentations, supporting Special Olympics, working with the local VA clinic, supporting Gold Star Mothers, and donating holiday food baskets to the needy. Members live up the VVA motto, 'In Service to America'. President of the local chapter is Jim Pike.
