Shown, from left, are Butch Wesoloski, commander of the VFW Charles Osborne Post 5189 in Vicksburg, handing a check for $500 to Sheri Louis, executive director of Generous Hands, with Melvin Kuis, post chaplain. The donation was especially timely, Louis said, as the need has become even greater with the coronavirus wreaking havoc on many of their families. “We were surprised to know that we have such a large need in Vicksburg. We are sure some of the families have veterans,” Wesoloski said.
