click to expand
MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- The Minnesota Assistance Council for Veterans is working to change lives. On Wednesday morning, WCCO was live at Target Field, where veterans gathered for a holiday meal and so much more.
It's all part of WCCO's Home for the Holidays campaign to help end veteran homelessness in Minnesota.
The event is a twist on MACV's traditional "StandDowns." Besides gathering together for food, it's a chance for veterans to get the services they need to thrive -- everything from advice on finding jobs and renting a home to vaccines and haircuts.
