Last week, hundreds of volunteers turned out to make some needed improvements at our Yountville Veterans Home. They helped to upgrade kitchens, install a new batting cage at the historic Cleve Borman field, expand a chicken coop, and plant new crops at the Tug McGraw Brain Food Garden.

The Tug McGraw Foundation organized the event in partnership with the Veterans Home, Home Depot, Habitat for Humanity, Cal Vet, and the Center for Volunteer & Nonprofit Leadership.
