New Bedford Twp. Veterans Center!

December 22, 2017 by bedfordvetsadmin

It is my pleasure, and my honor, to bring all of Bedford the news that we are opening the first Bedford Twp. Veterans Center! Modeled after a standard Veterans Center and a USO, it will be a place for all Veterans and their family’s to come and hang out and enjoy all that we will have to offer. The Veterans Center will be located at 760 W. Temperance Rd. in Temperance, MI, right next to Sunoco (the old post office).

We are not open to the public just yet, but currently we are working hard to finish the inside of this building. Below we will list some of our needs to be able to finish and open the doors! We will do our best to have a grand opening for ALL to come and see what Bedford’s hard work for these last 6 months has done. Without each and every one of your support, we could never take care of the men and women that protect our freedoms! Please remember we do not receive tax dollars from the Township and we have 100% relied on the hearts of our people, which has never failed us! The smallest of donation will keep our lights on! Many do not realize how many Veterans this Town has! I can tell you we have hundreds! And the registration is not complete, there are many who have not had the chance to stop by or have not heard of us! Spread the word so we can reach every single Military Veteran in Bedford Twp!!

Please, if there is anything you would like to help with, contact me day or night.

Welcome to the Bedford Township Veterans Center!

Please join us in honoring our Bedford Twp. Veterans

Bedford Township Veterans is a local non-profit outreach organization. We are the Bedford community organized to serve the needs of Bedford Veterans, Service Members and their families. Active, retired, reserve or guard you served us and Bedford serves Veterans. The Bedford Township Veterans Center is where to connect first. Located at the old post office in downtown Temperance we offer a wide range of services and a nice place to gather together and connect. Check regularly for events, participate in volunteer projects and please consider supporting financially. Individually we can only do so much but together we can support our own local Veterans and their families. The men and women who came to the aid of our nation when they were called upon, are a valuable resource to the country. If you want to build and enhance the dignity that all Veterans have earned by serving their country, the BTV Team encourages you to participate. Call today!

Mission Statement

Every American who has lived throughout our country’s existence has enjoyed a unique and lasting freedom. A freedom to live the lifestyle that any citizen would desire. To pursue riches, God, a family, to chase youth or wisdom, and possibly an education.

There are also those who weren’t born in this country who have noticed the American dream and have become citizens. They have raised families, had careers, and enjoyed the success that hard work and determination will bring in this country. Read More>>
