Winterhaven Stand Down for Homeless Veterans at DC VA Center. The Winterhaven Stand Down brings veterans together for a day of direct support, respect, and connection. The Major General William J Donovan American Legion Post 46 and our partners provide on-site gifts of new socks, shoes or boots. This year we aim to support 450 or more Veterans. The 2026 event will take place on November 7, 2026 from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. We look forward to making a positive impact in our community and helping those in need. We invite you to support our Veterans by making donations so that Post 46 can purchase new socks, shoes or boots (mens size 9-14 or women size 8.1/2-12) and ship them directly to the DC VA Center. We do not buy dress shoes because we have learned that these types of shoes do not last. With you help can make a big difference by providing sturdy boots and shoes to homeless and at-risk Veterans. If you prefer to volunteer your time, please reach out to us. Every contribution counts, no matter how small, and together we can show our appreciation to those who have honorably served our country. Let&rsquo;s come together to support our heroes and ensure they have what they need to stay warm and comfortable. Thank you for your time and support. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in our Veterans&#39; lives. Major General William J Donovan Post 46, Department of the District of Columbia, The American Legion
