Rotary Raises $10,500 for Veterans From "Flags Across Venice-Nokomis"

American Flag on Black

The Venice-Nokomis Rotary presented checks totaling $10,500 to local, veteran organizations from their “Flags Across Venice-Nokomis” program to assist local Veterans and Service Families who are in need of financial aid.

For only $45, subscribers to the program will be provided with a beautiful, 3-foot by 5-foot American Flag placed in their yard on each of the five Patriotic Holidays: Memorial Day, Flag Day, 4th of July, Labor Day and Veterans Day. The Venice-Nokomis Rotary also removes the flag after each holiday and safely stores it all year. The program has grown rapidly, to over 266 subscribers in 2020.

Subscribers participating don’t even have to be home when the flags are set up and removed. The Rotary Club said most homeowner associations have been supportive of the project.If you are unsure if your HOA is willing to participate, we would be happy to contact them.The program is currently servicing the following Venice and Nokomis ZIP codes: 34285, 34275, 34292 and 34293.

Anyone interested in participating can mail a check made payable to Venice Nokomis Rotary for a minimum of $45 for each home to be decorated at P.O. Box 8, Venice, 34285.
