In honor of Mays Military Appreciation Month, Armed Forces Bank is launching Heroes Round Up, a new program that empowers anyone military or civilian to transform their everyday debit card purchases into support for veterans experiencing homelessness. Launching May 1, Heroes Round Up makes it easy to round up purchases to the nearest dollar in $1 or $5 increments, with Armed Forces Bank automatically donating the spare change to Veterans Community Project (VCP) a nonprofit on the front lines of ending veteran homelessness nationwide through innovative housing and support services. On Monday, Armed Forces Bank associates from Fort Leavenworth and the greater Kansas City area will volunteer at the Kansas City Veterans Community Project. Armed Forces Bank volunteers will help veterans move in and out of homes, as well as stock shelves in the onsite Outreach Center for veterans. Other volunteer activities may include painting homes, landscaping, building tiny homes, preparing care packages and leading financial literacy workshops. Photo Credit: Submitted
