SUMMARY:RTW VET CENTER BUILDING DRIVE FUNDRAISER
DESCRIPTION:About the Purpose \nThe RTW Veteran Center is a 501(c)(3) non-for-profit that has been open since February of 2011 running twelve programs to improve the local community. The biggest among its many programs is its healthy soup kitchen which serves breakfast\, lunch\, and dinner seven days a week including holidays. In 2013 the center served over 50\,000 free meals to Chicago’s homeless veterans and others. The center also provides free clothes\, housing and housing placement\, job placement & training\, operates a free computer lab\, and has two sustainable gardens that provide fresh produce to the community. The center also operates a Young Soldiers Leadership Program as a part of its Gang Intervention Initiative. \n“The RTW Veteran Center is not a part of the Veterans Administration. It is a seperate non-for-profit that operates on a 100% volunteer staff financed by contributions from supporters like you.” \nThis fundraiser was created to pay off the building. In order to keep offering our services and helping the local community\, the RTW Veteran Center needs to secure the building and fully pay off the mortgage. The money freed up will help with essential costs and organization that’s imperative to the centers financial viability. \nThe Event Details \n\n\n\n\nPazzo’s \n\n\nAuthentic Mediterranean-Italian Restaurant\n\n\n311 South Wacker Drive\n\n\nChicago\, IL 60606\n\n\nwww.pazzoschicago.com\n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\nKeynote Speaker \n\nHon.

SUMMARY:City of Chicago Veterans Day Ceremony 2014
DESCRIPTION:The ceremony will once again take place just inside Gate 0 of Soldier Field in front of the Doughboy statue. Along the wall are benches to provide seating and moments of reflection. The benches contain notable quotations regarding the efforts of those who serve our country. Actual Military Medals of Honor representing the various branches of the armed forces are cast into the backrests.\nSoldier Field was named as such at the request of Gold Star Mothers to honor those men lost in World War I. The Doughboy statue\, originally placed in Garfield Park\, was restored and installed in Soldier Field as part of the stadium renovation. Doughboy is an informal term for a member of the United States Army or Marine Corps\, especially members of the American Expeditionary Forces in World War I.\nVeterans Day is the one day set aside to thank and honor living veterans who have served honorably in the military in wartime and peacetime. Originally known as Armistice Day and so declared by President Woodrow Wilson\, it was created to mark the signing of the Armistice which ended World War I. Following World War II\, it was declared a day to honor all veterans and in 1954\, renamed Veterans Day by Congress. \n\nDate: Tuesday\, November 11\, 2014\nTime: 10 am\nLocation: Soldier Field\, Gate 0\, 1410 Museum Campus Drive Chicago\, IL 60605\nAdmission: FREE\nAccessibility: Fully accessible.\nParking; FREE parking is available at the Waldron Parking Deck; exit at 18th Street from Lake Shore Drive.
