🇺🇸 Military Appreciation Month 🇺🇸

This month, we proudly honor the brave men and women who have served our nation with courage, sacrifice, and unwavering commitment.

A special recognition goes to the Delmarva Chapter 570, Military Order of the Purple Heart on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, an organization that represents the strength, resilience, and sacrifice of combat-wounded veterans who gave so much in service to our country.

Your service will never be forgotten. Your sacrifice will always be honored. Your legacy continues to inspire our communities across Maryland’s Eastern Shore and beyond.

Thank you to our Purple Heart recipients, veterans, active-duty service members, military families, and all who continue to serve.

If you’re on the Eastern Shore and struggling with your electric bill, there *is* help available. Please send this to those that need it most.

Maryland’s Office of Home Energy Programs (MEAP/EUSP) can provide grants paid straight to your utility, even if you already have a shut-off notice. You can learn more and apply here:
