The Nassau County Committee of the American Legion Auxiliary sponsors an annual Gift Shop for veterans at the Northport VA Medical Center. The veterans are offered items from which to select holiday gifts for family members. This year they also received gifts for themselves. The Gift Shop took place during the last week of November. Vice President and Treasurer, Elizabeth Parrella attended the Gift Shop. She helped to set up the room, sort items, fold clothing and cut wrapping paper in preparation for the selection/distribution of gifts for the veterans. In addition, she donated Christmas cards that were used by the veterans for their family. Thank you, Elizabeth, for spreading holiday cheer to those who have given so much for our great nation!
