They served us. Now it’s our turn to serve them.

On May 5th & 6th, 2026, we will be hosting the Placer Veterans Stand Down at The Grounds in Roseville—a two-day event dedicated to supporting veterans and their families who may be facing hardship.

This mission is especially close to my heart. My father and grandfather both served in the Army, along with other family members who have dedicated their lives to our country. My father-in-law served as a Seabee, and my brother-in-law is wrapping up an incredible 24-year career in the Navy this year.

Because of them, I understand just how important it is that we show up for our veterans—not just in words, but in action.

For many, this event is more than just services—it’s a fresh start, a moment of dignity, and a reminder that they are not alone.

We will be providing free, life-changing resources, including:
✔️ Medical, dental, and vision care
✔️ Meals, showers, and overnight accommodations
✔️ Employment and housing support
✔️ VA benefits assistance
✔️ Counseling and supportive services
✔️ Pet care and more

💬 How you can help:
Not every veteran who needs this support knows it exists.
Please take a moment to share this post. Tag someone. Send it directly. Help us reach those who need it most.

Together, we can make sure those who served our country feel seen, supported, and valued—because they deserve nothing less.
