Although saying thank you may look like a common thing, it is very special for the individuals who have served in the military. It is very unfortunate that most military personnel receive very little appreciation from the government and other institutions. This is despite the fact that the men and women who served carry the huge responsibility of ensuring safety in our nation. It is for this reason that Thank You For Your Service (TU4YS) has created this unique way of saying thank you to the military veterans.
The main objective of Vernon Davis’s initiative is to say thank you to the men and women who have served in the military. TU4YS has a very simple and unique way of accomplishing their mission. They have designed packets which they have named Thank You Packets (TYP’s). The TYP consists of a full colour Thank You card, envelope and a dog tag. These are the packets that they award to military veterans everyday, everywhere. This is done free of charge to the veteran. The TYP are mailed, awarded in persons, awarded via family, friends and various organizations that support our mission via donations.
To help them achieve their mission, TU4YS has partnered with several individuals and organizations who have continued to give donations at different events and shows. Some of the sponsor organizations include: Disabled American Veterans Auxiliary, Vietnam Veterans of America, Fishing For Freedom (Quincy, Illinois), Mid-America Military Salute Committee, NEMO Manufacturing, Inc., among others.
ThankU4YourService (TU4YS) is a non-profit organization that was started in November 2012 by Vernon Davis, an Army Veteran and professional stand-up comedian (stage name Longhorn The Comedian www.LonghornComedy.com). At every venue he performs, Vernon gives tribute to military veterans for their great service ad sacrifice. The key goal of the mission is to appreciate the great work that military veterans have performed by saying thank you. Since 2012 when the organization was established, over 4,000 Thank You Packets have been awarded to military veterans.
