Honoring Heroes on Armed Forces Day – Saturday, May 17, 2025

Armed Forces Day is a time to salute the brave men and women who serve across all military branches. As a Loan Officer, it’s also a powerful moment to connect with military families, veterans, and service members in your community—through appreciation, outreach, and helpful resources.

🎖️ Pop-By Gifts for Military Families or Bases:

Deliver thoughtful drop-offs with patriotic flair:

  • American flag pins or mini flags

  • Red, white & blue snack packs

  • Branded tumblers or travel mugs with a tag that says:

    “Home of the brave—and proud to help them find one.”
    “Saluting your service with support in every step of homeownership.”

☕ Partner with Veteran-Owned Businesses:

Sponsor coffee or a treat at a veteran-owned café or bakery. Include signage or cards:

“Proud to serve those who serve. Ask about VA loan options—because you’ve earned it.”

This supports local businesses while showing your commitment to the military community.

🎁 Armed Forces Day Social Giveaway:

Run a community giveaway:

“Tag a service member or military family that deserves a salute—they could win a patriotic gift basket!”

Highlight your knowledge of VA home loans subtly, with a CTA like:

“Whether you’re active duty, retired, or a proud military family, I’m here to help you make home happen.”
