SACRAMENTO, CA - Veterans and families at Mather Veterans Village, owned and operated by Nation’s Finest, in Sacramento, California, got an early holiday treat as they were gifted with frozen turkeys, bags of groceries, Raley’s gift cards, and co-branded swag. This came as a result of a partnership between Raley’s and the Sacramento Kings, which hosted its “Shop Like a King” event on December 17.
“We are truly honored to have been chosen among other organizations in the community to benefit from this generous initiative,” says Georgina Morales, Site Director, Nation’s Finest-Mather. “It’s wonderful way to give back and commemorate the holiday season.”
As part of the Sacramento Kings’ 22nd Annual Season of Doing Good, presented by Raley’s, the event brought joy and holiday spirit to veterans and their families living at Mather Veterans Village. The permanent supportive housing community in the greater Sacramento area provides vital care and resources to Veterans and their families with a focus on housing, health, and employment. According to a press release, the collaboration with the Sacramento Kings and Raley’s exemplifies the power of community partnerships in creating positive change.
The Sacramento Kings and Raley's have consistently demonstrated their commitment to giving back to the community through the Season of Doing Good initiative. Nation's Finest is proud to be a part of this meaningful collaboration, and the impact of this event will resonate with the residents at Mather Veterans Village.
“The kindness shown by the Sacramento Kings and Raley’s is creating a brighter holiday season for so many,” says Kerry Navarrette, Program Support Specialist, Nation’s Finest-Mather. “The groceries and gift card money will go a long way in supporting the needs of our Veterans, especially those who struggle this time of year.”
We here at ANUK give special thanks to these organizations as they honor veterans and their families.
