From now until Friday, February 12, 2015, Ultris Courthouse Square will be sending Valentine's cards to our brave veterans at Sitter & Barfoot Veterans Care in Richmond, VA.

Sitter & Barfoot Veterans Care Center is a 160-bed short term rehab and long term care facility, owned and operated by the Virginia Department of Veterans Services. We are located on the grounds of the Hunter Holmes McGuire VA Hospital. SBVCC was established for the short term and long term care needs of our honorably discharged Virginia Veterans as well as our active duty members who may have a need for short-term rehab. Physical, Occupational and speech therapy are offered on site. All rooms are private rooms with full bathroom and all meals are prepared on site and served in the dining hall

We are currently asking residents to please take a moment out of their busy schedules to make a Valentine or write a message and drop it off in one of our two collection boxes located in the Computer Lounge and Leasing Office. It only requires a few minutes of your time to decorate a care and write a mesage, and most importantly, brighten a hero's day!

Valentines cards and candy will be accepted until 6:00pm on Friday, February 12, 2016.

Thank you so much for thinking of our local heroes!
