Money raised will help Disabled American Veterans to purchase a new van used for transporting veterans to V.A. hospitals including locations in Prescott and Phoenix.
Local jewelry artist Jamie Larson, of Tiny Shinys, created and donated Pinup Patriette dog-tags, keychains and necklaces valued at more than $100 to the cause. Fifty percent of proceeds will benefit veterans.
Pinup Patriettes also have an event-traveling message book. People at events, where Pinup Patriettes are participants, are welcome to sign the book with encouraging words for active duty military men and women. The messages will be sent overseas as inspiration once the book is filled.
