Stand Down for Homeless Veterans Collection – Memorial Day Kick-off

Let’s honor those who gave all by supporting Connecticut homeless veterans. Take some time to visit the dollar store, grab some extra hotel products while traveling or direct ship. Help TTEC obtain the goal of filling 1,300 bags for Stand Down 2025 with these items for homeless veterans. Items needed include basic needs for personal care such as soap, razors, toothpaste, toothbrushes and shampoo. The bags, hats and gloves will be sponsored by TTEC and the socks have been sponsored by Hanes this year so we are already off to an amazing start.

If you are interested in shopping this Memorial Day, please see the items listed below and you can:

1. Drop in collection bins located throughout campus May 19th through May 30th
2. Ship directly to Jessica Hyde or Barbara Hanson, Travelers, 1 Tower Square, Mail Code 0000-PB06, Hartford, CT
3. Pick up can be coordinated by reaching out to Jennifer Shea jmshea@travelers.com.

Thank you for your consideration in making this day more meaningful by supporting our veteran community! Please share with your friends, peers and co-workers to help spread the word!

Items will be distributed at five locations across Connecticut on Friday September 19, 2025. If you are interested in volunteering that day please reach out and I will add your name to the list.

Please contact Jennifer Shea at jmshea@travelers.com for more information and shopping links.
