The Wall That Heals at VA Bedford

September 22, 2022 @ 12:01 am - September 25, 2022 @ 2:00 pm

To volunteer, visit tinyurl.com/33e2e8w7

The Wall That Heals

The Wall That Heals honors the more than three million Americans who served in the U.S. Armed forces in the Vietnam War and bears the names of the 58,281 men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in Vietnam.

Bringing the mobile exhibit to VA Bedford HCS, and by extension, the Town of Bedford, allows local Veterans and their family members a chance to experience The Wall. It provides an opportunity to honor and remember all those who served and sacrificed in the Vietnam War and educate visitors on the continuing impact of the Vietnam War on America.

VA Bedford needs volunteers to assist with The Wall That Heals. From Thursday until Sunday, we can expect hundreds of volunteers and thousands of visitors for 24-hours each day no matter the weather, crowds, or other needs. It will truly take a village.

Volunteers are needed around the clock to greet and assist visitors, should be 18 years or older, and be able to stand for extended periods. Volunteer training will be provided. Interested individual volunteers may sign up for shifts at tinyurl.com/33e2e8w7.   

Organizations desiring to volunteer or sponsor the visit may contact VA Bedford via email at [email protected] or call 781-687-3076 to express their interest.
