The Missouri Veterans Home Foundation provides quality-of-life enhancements and experiences for 150 v Thank you for considering support.

For local Vets living at the Veteran’s Home in Cape Girardeau, the room, board, healthcare, and dedicated staff are excellent. But added quality of life enhancements must come from donations - from those who have a deep appreciation for the sacrifices made.

Today we celebrated the completion of the new Neil and Alberta Dugan Memorial Pavilion at the Missouri Veterans Home - Cape Girardeau. This pavilion has been an 8 year journey and we couldn't be more proud of the finished product. Our Veterans, their families, and our activities staff are all enjoying this new space. This space was made possible by lots of hard work, dedication, and the generosity of Neil and Alberta Dugan who spent countless hours volunteering at our Veterans Home and who supported many area nonprofits with their time and money. We are honored to be one of the nonprofits they chose to leave a legacy gift to. Thank you to the Cape Girardeau Area Chamber of Commerce and the Jackson Chamber of Commerce for your help and support at today's event. We would also like to thank all the Veterans Home staff, volunteers, and community members who showed up to support us today and My Daddy's Cheesecake for the delicious pastries.
