Albany , NY — DONATION: The Albany Homeless Veteran Program received $13,000 to assist Homeless Veterans in upstate NY. The funds were raised in a recent community golf tournament fundraiser
organized by former Stratton VA Environmental Services Chief Anthony Schwartz and Tom Japour, a current Stratton VA Transportation Services employee. The funds will be used primarily for
startup bedding and furnishing kits for apartments that homeless Veterans will be moving into through the VA HUD-VASH Program. The community golf tournament fundraiser has become an annual
event hosted by Tony and Tom, with donations earmarked to support Stratton VA’s homeless program, assisting Capital Region Veterans who are, or are at-risk of becoming homeless. KUDOS to
Tony, Tom, all the folks who assist in organizing the event and most of all, to all who took part in the tournament, joining in the dedication and commitment of ending homelessness. In the
attached picture, organizers of the golf tournament present a $13,000 check raised to help combat Veteran homelessness for area Veterans to the Stratton VA. (l to r) Patrick Sullivan, Tina
