Visit Vons and Help a Veteran Secure a Job

In honor of Veterans Day, Vons and Pavilions are raising money to help Easter Seals provide support vital services for veterans.

Shoppers can help Easter Seals Southern California provide local, one-on-one civilian employment support services to veterans, by making a donation on the pin-pad at the register. Your donation at the checkout stand will support our Military & Veterans Services which assists veterans one-on-one to transition out of the military to a civilian job or to build their own small business. Our service helps veterans with or without a disability.

“Vons recognizes the sacrifices veterans and their families have made. We think one of the best ways to honor our heroes is to raise money to support exceptional organizations such as Easter Seals to provide local services that help these amazing men and women get the tools they need to gain civilian employment,” said Jenna Watkinson, manager of public affairs and government relations for Vons.

“Easter Seals is excited and appreciative to be part of Vons’ fundraising efforts for services for veterans,” said Mark Whitley, chief executive officer of Easter Seals Southern California.

“We’ve had a longstanding successful partnership with Vons for many years, during which they have raised more than $8 million for our disability services. The fact that they are now expanding their efforts to the services we provide to help veterans rebuild their lives is outstanding.”
