Members of American Legion Post No. 455, Stewartstown, recently donated $1,000 to the York County Veterans Affairs department.

Post 455 Commander Bobby O’Farrell and other legion members presented a check to Terry Gendron, director of the York County Veterans Affairs department, during the legion’s general membership meeting.

The money was raised from various legion activities and events and will be used for the VA’s Higher Standard Project, which provides homes for honorably discharged veterans willing to undergo rigorous treatment to recover from substance abuse, trauma, or both.

More information on the Higher Standard Project can be found at yorkcountypa.gov or by contacting York County Veterans Affairs at (717) 771-9218.
