June Newsletter View Online Forward DAV HOME ABOUT US DONATE DAV Aids Veterans in Disaster-Ravaged States When disaster strikes the DAV is there to help both from the national level and regionally. The generosity of our donors allowed our National Service Officers to offer financial relief to over 200 wounded veterans and their families suffering in the wake of tornadoes and floods in Alabama, Arkansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Texas so far in 2015. Local DAV chapters have helped with support on the ground by providing much needed food and supplies, including to some folks in Eastland, Texas.
