VETS REACTIONS TO GETTING THEM
Vital Signs posters to a veteran in hospital or recovery.
WHAT VET RECEIVES:
When I told him I put love in every Vital Sign, he said: “I can feel it already.”
As I was leaving his room another vet said: “Thanks for caring.”
Another said."It shouldn't be so important to be appreciated, but it is."

WHAT IS THIS ?
HOW'S IT WORK ?
Sponsoring Heart Hoppers is an act of uplifting the spirits of staff, volunteers and patients at VA La Jolla. A unique way to say: “I appreciate you.”
Join with others in seeing that Heart Hoppers are gifted to VA La Jolla employees, volunteers and military patients.
Bound to light the place up with love. These little messages are magical.
In July and November of 2018, there were 915 sleeves of a dozen Heart Hoppers gifted to patients, staff and volunteers at the VA La Jolla Hospital for the Spread the Love Campaigns. We are grateful to the many people that joined us in these two worthwhile ventures last year to appreciate the veterans and the dedicated people who serve them. It was a great success and we are grateful to those that participated.
