Good connections are meant to be shared. If you know a veteran, entrepreneur or business professional looking to grow their network, bring them to tonight’s Veteran Business Collective meeting. One introduction could open the door to something great.

Twenty-five years ago, our country changed forever.

For many members of the Veteran Business Collective, 9/11 became part of their own story. They remain their stories to tell. But, they raised their right hand, deployed, and served in the wars that followed because it was personal or they were called to do so.

Today, we remember the lives lost on September 11 and honor those who answered the call afterward - including so many within our own VBC community.

We remember their service, their families, and the sacrifices that continued long after they came home.

Never forget. 🇺🇸
