Jacksonville Postal Employee Gives Back



Cheryl LeBarge, Custodian for the Arlington Post Office has volunteered with the American Legion Auxiliary for more than twelve years. She says she received her “calling” when she attended her first “Homeless Veterans Stand Down”. Since then, she volunteers with the Veterans Administration – Military Affairs to help assist homeless and at risk veterans. 

The Veterans Administration is only one group she assist, Ms. LeBarge also volunteers with the local Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW), Operation Home Front who assists National Guard and active duty service members and their families. Ms. LeBarge’s next event is a Homeless Veterans Stand Down held August 3-4 at the fairgrounds in downtown Jacksonville. Volunteers are always welcome. 

You can contact Ms. LeBarge at hug-a-vet@att.net.
