Memorial Day, Baseball Cards, And A Cause That Ties Both…

While in Sicily I got a message from my brother Chris, who is in the process of cleaning out his home office and has, shall we say, a lot of stuff, most of which is very special but there are also a lot of cards that may not have value…how many Denny Walling’s does one need after all?

So what to do with them? He found an answer, one that is more relevant on Memorial Day, and can help make a difference in the lives of many.

Sports Cards 4 Veterans Inc. is a 501 (C)(3) Nonprofit organization founded and operated by Veterans, for Veterans. They are deeply committed to supporting our fellow service members, especially those facing mental health challenges and homelessness.

They provide therapeutic support and meaningful connections to Veterans by giving them sports cards—an engaging and nostalgic hobby that helps reduce stress, foster community, and promote mental wellness. These cards often serve as a gateway to conversation, camaraderie, and healing. They organize local activities and community events specifically for Veterans, creating spaces where they can connect, share, and heal together.

Their reasoning…

 Veterans deserve more than thanks—they deserve action, compassion, and community. By using sports cards as a unique tool for engagement and healing, and by reinvesting in Veteran-focused initiatives, we help bring purpose and support back into the lives of those who served.

Who runs it…

Simple idea…worth supporting and assisting.
