VetFriends.com Announces Partnership with One80 Place, In Support of Homeless Veteran Relief
Charleston, SC: (PRWEB) November 21, 2014 -- In the spirit of giving back, VetFriends.com has announced the launch of a large-scale Thanksgiving food drive to help offset challenges faced by beneficiaries of One80 Place (formerly known as Crisis Ministries). VetFriends expects this food drive to result in thousands of donated non-perishable food items, with every item purchased from their catalog matched with one canned good. The Mount Pleasant, SC based company has experienced tremendous growth over the last two years and hopes to leverage their success to make an impact locally with the development of this partnership. VetFriends.com welcomes more than 400,000 visitors to their site each month, and has encouraged their more than 1.7 Million members to participate in this monumental drive.
“We are proud to be a part of the Charleston community and recognize our responsibility to give back locally” said Mr. Sutcliffe, VetFriends.com CEO and Founder. “Every day, our business celebrates the pride and service of veterans and their families, but that doesn’t stop with our members and customers.
