For my fellow veterans, retirees, and those still serving, what are some of the ways you are giving back to your community?

I live in Denmark, so can't do much, but I do make knives, mostly go to fellow 11Bs, or others I have served with. When it comes to payment, they donate the money to a veterans support group in Oregon. I also make knives and sent to the group which has get togethers twice a year. There they have auctions, where my knives are auctioned off. The money from the group goes to support Vets around the area. This is my give back. Just an example of one I made for a guy who served in the 101st.

I Have A Good Friend, Thomas W. Croff, Whom Served With The 101st Air Borne,
Combat Division, Vietnam. Tom Did Two Tours; First Was In 1971...
Returned Semi-Safely With 1 Purple Followed Up With A Cluster...
I've Known Tom Since 7th Grade Homeroom 227 ~ West Junior High ~ Lansing, Michigan.
Tom Presently Lives In Michigan In The Summer & Florida In Winters.
He Owned A Liquor Store, About 1 Mile Down The Street From One Of My Print Shops.
He FORTUNATELY Introduced Me To "Meyers's" Dark Rum.....
Bacardi Tastes Like Fuel Oil , But Works GREAT For Starting Camp Fires & BBQ Grills,
But I'd Not Drink That Sh*t; I Don't Even Know Why It Was Ever Produced..
Meyers's Renewed My Faith In Good Rum, Like We Had When Living In Central America.
