Texas Capital Chapter 1919,
Military Order of the Purple Heart, takes the lead with projects, in
addition to our permanent Purple Santa
Program, that are supportive of America’s currently deployed military,
veterans of all wars, veterans’ families, and community youth sports; and
acts in concert with other organizations that share these worthy objectives.
Projects
are limited in scope only by the resources available and donations are
always welcome.
Chapter 1919 pledges to apply 100 percent of
contributions received to the project designated.
We believe that these projects support the needs of veterans and provide
maximum use of your support. Review the overview provided for our current
initiatives and please support them.
