Spreading Love this Valentine’s Day
Traditionally seen as a holiday for children to share candy or for couples to gift flowers, Valentine’s Day has significance beyond romantic relationships. It’s also a time to reflect on those you are grateful for and express your care and gratitude to them. On February 14 this year, be sure to express your love, care, and kindness to Veterans in your life as well!
Celebrating Black History Month
The 2025 VA Black History Month theme “African Americans and Labor” highlights and celebrates the contributions of African American labor of all kinds – skilled and unskilled, vocational and voluntary, uniformed and civilian, professional and intellectual. Join us as we celebrate the impact of African American contributions to our community and nation.
Presidents’ Day 2025
This year on Presidents’ Day, February 17, 2025, we are reminded of the VA mission “To fulfill President Lincoln’s promise to care for those who have served in our nation’s military and for their families, caregivers, and survivors.” The call to serve Veterans has always been a priority for US presidents. TVAREF honors this federal holiday and hopes that you take some time to reflect on the positive impact Presidents have had honoring veterans.
