Project helps homeless veterans
Comet staff report
A Carroll Jr.-Sr. High School student conducted a food drive to help with a winning project in the WRTV 6/"Oprah's Big Give Indiana" contest.
The winning project (one of two in Indiana) was Operation Heartland, submitted by Indianapolis residents and Air Force veterans, Scott and Katie Taylor. The Taylors submitted the proposal to help the organization, HVAF (Helping Homeless Veterans and Families) of Indiana Inc.
HVAF, the only organization of its kind in the state, has helped thousands of veterans break the cycle of homelessness. The Taylors learned that HVAF had acquired a 40-unit apartment building for homeless veterans of Indiana, but needed additional resources to furnish and stock the apartments.
