Calling All Children, Grandchildren and Fans of the Greatest Generation…
The American Legion Department of Connecticut and Hands Touching Hearts
are teaming up to honor our heroes. Tell us how many World War II veterans you know and we’ll
surprise them with a world of thanks and a small token of appreciation!
We Need YOU!
Hands Touching Hearts is a global outreach effort originated by Ann M. Cosgrove, a graphic artist in Vernon,
Connecticut. The program gives Americans of all ages the opportunity to create handcrafted keepsakes for United
States military personnel. The thank-you gifts are distributed free of charge to active-duty service members,
reservists and veterans. Since the inception of Hands Touching Hearts in 2017, participants have numbered in the
thousands and ranged in age from 2 to 102!
