We’ve been blessed to have some amazing Veterans Committee volunteers who have gone above and beyond to help others, some fantastic philanthropy among our peers, and a wonderful community of people who care about veterans and their education,” stated Sam Gluck, Service Director, Weifield Group Contracting, U.S. Navy Veteran, and an IECRM Veterans Committee member.
