Nominations Sought for “Help for Heroes” Program

Walker Furniture is seeking recommendation letters for the company’s sixth annual “Help for Heroes” program to help wounded U.S. Military personnel and veterans in Clark County who need specialized furniture.

“Walker Furniture created the “Help for Heroes” program to help make day-to-day living a little easier for a segment of our community that is often overlooked,” said Larry Alterwitz, Walker Furniture CEO/Owner. “This year the program will provide some relief for 12 active duty military personnel and/or veterans.”

The “Help for Heroes” program relies on letters from the community describing the situations of prospective recipients. Walker Furniture will provide certain necessary items that are not generally available through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, such as lift chairs, adjustable beds, new mattresses, dining sets and a variety of other furniture. Each delivery will be specific to the needs of each recipient.

The deadline for submitting a letter is Friday, June 21, 2019. Local heroes will be notified the week of June 24^th.

There are many ways to submit a letter by the June 21, 2019 deadline:
