On April 11th, 2026, VT Seva Cary volunteers participated in a DAV Flower Making event, creating handmade “forget-me-not” flowers to honor retired and disabled American veterans. Our 6 youth volunteers and 1 adult volunteer worked together in a fun and productive environment, making flowers while listening to music and engaging in conversation. Throughout the event, volunteers stayed focused and dedicated, carefully crafting each flower to show appreciation for the service and sacrifices of veterans. By the end of the event, the team created over 1,120 flowers, each serving as a small but meaningful reminder of gratitude and recognition. These flowers are distributed by the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) organization at events and in communities across the country, where they help raise awareness and support for veterans. This is also a recurring service event, giving volunteers ongoing opportunities to contribute, connect, and make an impact over time. It allowed participants to combine creativity with service, making a positive impact while spreading joy to those who have given so much to the community.

This successful cleanup reflects the importance of community service, environmental responsibility, and giving back. We are deeply grateful to all our volunteers who continue to make a positive impact year after year. Together, we can build a cleaner, greener future.
