Members of Pennsylvania Chapter 76 and their family members visited with residents at the Southwestern Veterans Center as part of last year’s DAV Community Impact Day.

Chapter member Amber Borders, who regularly volunteers at the assisted-living facility, organized the event, which included festive decorations, snacks, cooking classes, and arts and crafts.

“We just want to bring something a little bit enjoyable for them to do, something interactive, and some people that will love and care on them,” she said.

Borders’ two children, daughter Adalynn, 9, and son Greyson, 5, volunteer, too. She said they both love going and help plan the visits.

“They ask me when is the next time we can go,” Borders said. “We make it a whole event each time.”

Her children aren’t going to be the only people joining her on the next visit. Because of this experience, several others have already committed to going along.

We’re hosting another DAV Community Impact Day this spring! Take the pledge at communityimpactday.org and make an impact on April 4, 2026!
