Forward pay, that's today's Appalachian Wireless. 3, 2, 1. The VFW post, $58.39 in Prestonsburg, broke ground in May for a new Veterans emergency homeless shelter. The shelter will offer a variety of services to help veterans with anything they may need to help them get back on their feet. Thanks to a very supportive community, progress on the facility is moving along nicely. Although many have volunteered their services to the project, there are still many unmet needs. We always need volunteers. But these young boys, young men that I should say, that's from the job corps. And so they come up and volunteer, they're here four days a week to help, which is greatly appreciated. There's a lot of people pitching in, because this is really needed here in this area. We need specialists and electricians, plumbers, heating and cooling. People with experts are coming volunteers with license. So far, it's come in pretty handy. We've gotten it, but we don't have a eight hour a day, a seven day a week individual. So we need people to come in, rotate to come and work with us. And if you don't have experience, come. We'll help teach you. We do the job corps that way. Now although this facility and the programs that will be offered to the veterans will not be available until the spring, it's already given one particular veteran a hand up. I'm homeless myself and being a veteran, I know how important it is to have a place. And I'm volunteering, you know, working with them to help them get it up and going. It'll help you have a place, you know, get out of the, you know, environments. And then it got, you know, some programs, some things they can do to help you get on your feet, get a job. Whatever issues you have, they got, they have something that can help, that can help you if you want it. The main thing is you got to, you got to want to help. If you want to help, it's there. If you would like to volunteer with this project, simply call the VFW post 5839 at 606-886-9428. Reporting from Prestonsburg for EKB News, I'm Sean Allen.
