Dale Throneberry, hosts this month's VA Benefits program hour with the following guests: John Griffith, State Commander, VFW of MichiganBrig Gen Carol Ann Fausone (ret) – Legal Help for Veterans The VFW traces its roots back to 1899 when veterans of the Spanish-American War (1898) and the Philippine Insurrection (1899-1902) founded local organizations to secure rights and benefits for their service: Many arrived home wounded or sick. There was no medical care or veterans' pension for them,and they were left to care for themselves! In their misery, some of these veterans banded together and formed organizations with what would become known as the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States. After chapters were formed in Ohio, Colorado and Pennsylvania, the movement quickly gained momentum. By 1915, membership grew to 5,000; by 1936, membership was almost 200,000. Since then, the VFW's voice had been instrumental in establishing the Veterans Administration, creating a GI bill for the 20th century, the development of the national cemetery system and the fight for compensation for Vietnam vets exposed to Agent Orange and for veterans diagnosed with Gulf War Syndrome. Besides helping fund the creation of the Vietnam, Korean War, World War II and Women in Military Service memorials, the VFW in 2005 became the first veterans' organization to contribute to building the new Disabled Veterans for Life Memorial, which opened in November 2010. Annually, the nearly 2 million members of the VFW and its Auxiliaries contribute more than 8.6 million hours of volunteerism in the community, including participation in Make A Difference Day and National Volunteer Week..

It's always a good day to help out but if you need an extra reason to do good, there's no better one than Make A Difference Day.

October Episode #26

Working at a restaurant is meaningless!  Let's face it, that's the hard truth. We work long hours preparing the food for our customers. Like we spend days making the dough, we shred cheese, slice vegetables, roast meat, etc.  Whatever you serve in your restaurant, you put days of work to get that ready.  We do something that when a customer orders, hopefully within 25-20 minutes, we can provide them that food. And you know, in reality, that food in a few hours is going to end up in the toilet and get flushed. This industry is very tough. Working in a restaurant in itself, and running a restaurant is meaningless.  Sometimes we are stuck in the cycle of interviewing people, hiring them, training them, coaching them, terminating them, or they quit.  Doing these things every single week can be exhausting.  October 26 is a MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY!  Today we are talking about how we, as restaurant professionals, can make a difference in the lives of our customers, our people, and our community.  This is something that I learned from watching Walmart's Shareholder Meeting (you can look this up on YouTube).  Public companies like Walmart, Amazon, Facebook, and more have quarterly shareholder report that they send out. Pizza Hut, Domino's, and Papa John's are also part of that.  They strongly recommend you look into those numbers. As mandated by law, they do have to report in public their sales. They announce what they've been doing, and where the direction of the company is going for their shareholders.   This Walmart's Shareholder Meeting is quite different. They had a massive stage with bands, performers, and invited famous people to talk like Hollywood actress Jennifer Garner.  They had brought their folks from different parts of the world where Walmart is operating. Their CEO and other officials would come on stage, and there was music and dance. It was all about more of celebration.  They share the progress of the company, the differences they made for the meals they serve. Altogether the things they've been doing, they were celebrating it during this Shareholder Meeting.  Watching this made me realized some things that we can apply to our restaurants. I would like to share what I learned from that, and what we've started implementing for our restaurant every single month that helped us to: Build our brand and reputation in the community  Be well known to people Give meaning to the work that we're doing daily  Since then, we have been creating what we call a MONTHLY CUSTOMER IMPACT REPORT. This is directly reporting about the impacts that we had as a restaurant in our community. We show this through different platforms such as our social media, website, email newsletter, Facebook notes, Google post, etc.

Make a Difference Day has been a national holiday since 1992. I'm sure you can easily find several volunteer opportunities you could do in your city or town today, and I hope you'll do that! But I want to suggest another way you can make a difference, today and every day.

I received a flyer in the mail the other day. It rang a bell; I had seen something like it in previous years. It was the annual Make a Difference Day information sheet. From the title, you can tell that it is about getting involved in the community and making a positive difference. This event has grown since 1990, and is held the fourth Saturday of October. It started through USA Weekend and the 800 newspapers it serves. It is a day dedicated to serving neighbors and the community, to meeting needs and offering support. There are thousands of people involved in organizing it. Just letting people know which needs exist is a big job. Nowadays with the internet, people can find out much quicker who needs what and where. Last year, over three million people got involved with local groups to help in many ways. As I glanced through the list of places to help in our little community, I counted at least thirty. However, there are other charitable groups that are not mentioned. In a large city, there must be hundreds of causes that people can help. Several of the groups here are set up to help poor and homeless people in the Winter. It is an awful prospect to be caught in a freezing climate with nowhere to live. Free coats, blankets, and all sorts of basic essentials will be donated at various places. Also the shelters, such as the Salvation Army, will be cleaned, painted, and prepared for the Winter. Volunteers are asked to sign up ahead of time, sometimes bringing their own equipment, and then they will be assigned a job or two. The projects are not just charitable, though. People can choose to plant trees or flowers in public places, pick up litter along highways and roads, or even provide babysitting. It's not compulsory; it's all about volunteering, doing a job, helping. Of course, once you are out there, you begin to see other areas in the community that need help. That is probably why Make a Difference Day has grown each year. I've put it on the calendar, and will be deciding with my family what we can do to help in our town. Grammar notes. Related vocabulary: a flyer, to ring a bell, a prospect, to assign. 1. We get all sorts of flyers in the mail, advertizing this and that. 2. Your name rings a bell; have I met you before? 3. Finally getting a promotion is a wonderful prospect. 4. He assigned us jobs. Mine was to clean up after the event. // //
