In celebration of Veterans Day, JPMorgan Chase employees from the White Plains office and branches around Westchester, collected more than 500 basic-needs items for the James J. Peters Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center in the Bronx. The items, including socks, blankets, toothbrushes and soap, were given to veterans living in and/or receiving long-term care from the Bronx VA Medical Center. Many of these veterans face a variety of challenges and rely on the VA for medical services, as well as other social support.
