Veterans Day 11/11 : How to Show Appreciation to our Veterans 🇺🇸

 
 

Veterans Day is an important day for showing appreciation to members of our military, past, and present. We would like to take this time to show appreciation and support to any members of the GumGum team who have served in the military.

If you're looking for an appropriate way to honor a veteran in your life or would like to contribute in a way that's meaningful for veterans everywhere, here's a list of suggestions to start you off.

How to show appreciation to Veterans on Veterans Day

Thank Veterans in your Workplace

A simple thank you goes a long way.

Support Veteran-Owned Businesses

Veteran-owned businesses are in every community. Google makes it easier to find in their business profiles via their Google My Business profile. It usually signifies via a "Veteran-Led" note on the profile. You can also use Veteran-owned business directories or ask friends in your community.

Make a Donation or Volunteer

There are many charities that help Veterans in need. Consider making a donation this Veterans Day to help those wounded or affected by service.

Observe a Moment of Silence

A more private way to show thanks is by observing a moment of silence. The Veterans Day moment of silence is typically observed for two minutes at 11:11 am every Veterans Day.

Display a yellow ribbon to show your support.

Displaying a yellow ribbon, whether pinned to your clothing or tied around a tree in your yard, is a simple and kind gesture to express your appreciation for the individuals who serve in the military.
