DISASTER RELIEF

Help for a Veteran in Need



NORFOLK, Virginia - Ray, a retired military veteran and double amputee, and his wife Esther had seen the weather reports and knew that a winter storm was coming that would most likely trap them inside their home for several days.

The snow came down as expected and several inches of snow covered their driveway and the handicap ramp Ray used to get in and out of the house. Thankfully, Ray and Esther had seen on the news a story about Operation Blessing's Snow Buddy program in their area and were able to call and ask for help. A team soon arrived with shovels and deicer and got to work, completely clearing their driveway and removing all the snow and ice that had collected on Ray's wheelchair ramp. With the snow and ice gone, Ray and Esther were now free to leave their home safely.

"I am so grateful," Esther said. "If it wasn't for [Operation Blessing] we would have been inside until the snow melts. It's such a blessing."
