Veteran Organization Always Needs Help 

        You can volunteer to assist other veterans in receiving benefits they have earned.  As of today, nearly 140,000 volunteers are assisting veterans through the Veterans Affairs (VA) system.  Among those volunteers is the group Military Order of the Purple Heart (MOPH) - a group that has already given on the  battlefield and now is giving back to others.

           MOPH is an organization made up entirely of veterans who have been wounded in combat and have received the Purple Heart for their sacrifice.  In 2008, nearly 700 volunteers from the group donated nearly 83,000 hours at 97 medical facilities in the U.S. by providing a variety of assistance to veterans.  Additionally, the Ladies Auxiliary of MOPH donated another 18,000 hours to the Voluntary Service (VAVS) program in that same year.

          VA volunteers can go to work in hospital wards, at nursing homes, some pharmacies and in outreach centers.  Some volunteers drive patients to and from medical centers, while others participate in recreational activities.  Volunteers look forward to improving the overall quality of life of the other veterans.  For more information and details on the MOPH VAVS program or to volunteer for other areas, visit www.purpleheart.org.  - Source: Dallas Morning News.
