JJHS Hosting Disabled American Veterans Field of Flags
Jackson Jr. High is sponsoring a Disabled American Veterans (DAV) Field of Flags on November 8th. We need to raise at least $250 to meet our goal and receive the flag kit from the DAV. We want to create a field large enough to honor as many veterans as possible. Any amount will help. Additionally, if you can contribute $25 (Bronze Level), $50 (Silver Level), or $100 (Gold Level), JJHS students will recognize your generosity in our 1st annual Field of Flags picture (mailed or emailed after Veterans Day.)
