| Holidays | How to help | West Seattle news

Thanks to Kyle Geraghty of American Legion Post 160 for the photos and report:

West Seattle’s American Legion Post 160 and Auxiliary Unit 160 came together today to assemble care packages for homeless veterans in our community.

If you know a veteran who is or is at imminent risk to being homeless please make a call to 877-4AID-VET (424-3838) to be connected 24/7 with VA’s service to overcome or prevent homelessness.

If you are a veteran or family member of a vet and would like to support projects like this, contact American Legion Post 160 at wslegion160@gmail.com or 206-932-9696.

It was a wonderful time, and I was thrilled with the number of Post 160 members and Friends that came together to work on the Gift Bags. Many thanks to Andrea, President of the Post 160 Auxiliary, for her extra effort in locating those in need, and securing a lot of donations to make the Gift Bags (large reusable shopping bags) really full of things people need.
Thank you all. I look forward to many more opportunities to work together to make our Veteran Community and the West Seattle Community a better place to live.
Keith Hughes, Commander, Post 160
