Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan announced the launch of the 2025 Valentines for Veterans Program to create and distribute Valentine’s Day cards to veterans living in Virginia’s Fourth Congressional District.

Fourth District residents are highly encouraged to deliver or mail Valentine’s Day cards to McClellan’s Richmond or Brunswick District Offices by Friday, Feb. 7.

The Valentines will then be delivered by McClellan and her staff on Valentine’s Day to veteran-serving organizations throughout District 4.

Virginia is home to one of the largest populations of active-duty servicemembers and veterans in the nation, and many of them can be found in Virginia’s Fourth. I’m excited to launch the 2025 Valentines for Veterans Program to give back to veterans in our communities and spread a little holiday cheer. Please consider gifting a Valentine’s Day card to express gratitude to our veterans and their service. These messages serve as a reminder that we recognize and appreciate the sacrifice our troops make every day,” McClellan said.

For more information about Valentines for Veterans is available online.
