Saying "Thank You" With ACTION
The Cincinnati Veterans Hospital is currently making plans to move its nursing home and hospice center from Fort Thomas to its Vine Street location. With that move, plans are being laid to develop a new community living center. The center will consist of a nursing home, assisted care living, and hospice care.
The first phase of the project is projected to be completed early in 2011.
To honor and pay tribute to the Veterans that will be residing in the center and for the thousands of Veterans the Cincinnati VA treats annually, a group has formed together to build a Veterans Tribute Plaza and Tower on the grounds of the new Community Living Center.

The 30 foot tower will be a living memorial to the service and sacrifice to all Cincinnati area Veterans and the plaza surrounding the tower will be a beautiful and peaceful place for both residents and visitors to enjoy.
With your help, we can provide a wonderful living memorial to our veterans. This group is asking all citizens to make a contribution to honoring those that have given so much for our freedom.
For over 200 years our soldiers, sailors, airman, and marines have strived to secure peace and freedom all over the world. These men and women have fought and died in order to defeat the forces of tyranny and dictatorship and have strived to establish a sense of honor and decency and respect for all of mankind.
Former President Ronald Reagan once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction”. Consider doing your part to help honor those generations past and present by making a contribution.
You may also honor a loved one by purchasing a brick that will be placed around the plaza. Each brick can be engraved with the name of the Veteran or message.
| Brick Size | Cost | |
| 4 x 8 | $35.00 | Download Application |
| 6 x 12 | $70.00 | Download Application |
| 12 x 12 | $1000.00 | Download Application |
Residents of Ohio can show their appreciation for all members of the U.S. Miliitary - past and presnt by purchasing this handsome specialy license plate.
Funds raised from the plate will benefit The Thank You Foundation and our efforts to support Veterans, Military Personnel, and their Families all across Ohio.
The cost of the plate is $20.00 with the Foundation receiving $10.00 from each plate sold.
A portion of plate sales will also go to help support the Veterans Tribute Plaza Project, as well as VA Welcome Home events in Cincinnati, Columbus, and Cleveland.
Kroger Neighborhood Rewards Program
The Kroger Neighborhood Rewards program is the easiest way to help "Support the Troops" and our Veterans without making a donation!
How the Program Works
- Obtain a Kroger Gift Card by contacting The Thank You Foundation.
- Take the card to Kroger or any Kroger owned store and load it with a cash value of anything between $10 - $250 before making a purchase.
- Use the card for purchases just like a debit or credit card.
Each quarter Kroger will donate 4% of the total value of all cards distributed by the Foundation back to us.
Funds generated from this program help us continue our "Mission of Appreciation".
