In September of 2022, we had our LARGEST EVENT YET! Dinontas Corporation partnered with AT&T Veteran ERG Florida Chapter, Volunteers of America, and the Daily Bread to provide backpacks, clothing, and socks to over 750 Veterans in Brevard County! Dinontas Sources food and clothing from US manufacturers for veterans and the less fortunate and conducts fundraising for shipping costs. For this event, we secured three pallets of items that were delivered to the Daily Bread in Brevard County, Florida, where we coordinated with AT&T Veterans ERG and Volunteers of America to assemble the backpacks and then distributed them to Veterans participating in the "James Cole Village" Program, which is a Grant & Per Diem (GPD) Program that provides transitional housing and supportive services to homeless Veterans to stabilize and prepare them for a life of independence.

Pallets of items are donated however shipping costs are not. Veterans ERG Florida Chapter donated over $1,175.10 to pay for shipping costs.  AT&T also donated $1,717.45 for 1,000 backpacks! We estimated that the backpacks reached over 750 veterans and possibly more. 

Three pallets weighing 2,705 pounds (Our largest shipment to date!) contained the following items:
