KANSAS CITY, Mo. (KCTV) - "Dozens of volunteers spent their lunch hour on a mission.
"Nearly 100 people with Veterans United Foundation Teams spent the day at the Veterans Community Project. They painted the tiny homes in the village to give them new life.
"The tiny homes serve as transitional housing for formerly homeless veterans. The homes are specifically designed for people living with #PTSD according to the organization.
" 'For me personally, a lot of my experiences and my service were just small details, just doing work, just kinda knocking out little tasks that all contribute to the larger mission, right, same thing here. Coming out, doing the painting and some of the manual labor that helps insure that these homes are in the best shape for the veterans that are here,' Baxter Nickels, Veterans United Home Loans, said.
"Other volunteers from the group are also running the project’s monthly #FoodPantry for the Veterans Community Project."
