Mission Accomplished: Stable Housing (M.A.S.H), a program funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs and served by Volunteer Behavioral Health, provides support to eligible low-income veteran families throughout Tennessee and North Georgia.

We would like to salute the Fairfield By Marriott in East Ridge as an example of corporate support. The local owner, P.J. Patel, and management company, LBA Hospitality, donated more than 70 full rooms of furniture to the M.A.S.H program as the hotel undergoes a massive renovation. This will provide a much-needed boost to our heroes and their families as they start a new phase in their lives.

Mark Hart, general manager, said, "This country made a promise to these men and women when they signed up to protect America that they would also be cared for when their military service was finished. This is just the right thing to do."
