Founders' Corner

I write about everything that helps US veterans, the organizations that support them, and US small businesses. And I propose to my readers that they also become involved in our important cause. Towards that end, I also write about HirePatriots' exclusive Cause Marketing strategy to promote the businesses that support us. And I introduce ways that patriots and veterans can earn an income from home or office through HirePatriots.com. HirePatriots.com is a program of Patriotic Hearts 501c3. We encourage US residents to post Day Job for their local veterans. And we allow any business to post their jobs and search our resumes for free too.

Thanksgiving Wishes and Tips from HirePatriotsGA.com

While most of the nation will be spend time with family and friends during the Thanksgiving Holiday season, many of our nations forward deployed heroes will rotate through dining facilities (if they are lucky) in places far from home.While most of the nation will be spend time with family and friends during the Thanksgiving Holiday season, many of our nations forward deployed heroes will rotate through dining facilities (if they are lucky) in places far from home.  Being deployed during the holiday season is especially tough on service members and their families back home.

Let’s not forget those who are making sacrifices for us during this season.  As we give thanks for our security, for our freedom and for the sacrifice of many, don’t forget to give thanks to the young men and women who so proudly serve our nation in uniform.   Additionally, don’t forget to give thanks to the many Georgia Veterans who have sacrificed for our nation.

Here are 5 things you can do to help make this Thanksgiving special for an active duty service member, a veteran, or their family members.

  • Pick up the phone:  Call or email a veteran and let them know how much you appreciate what they are doing or have done for this nation.



  • Bake an extra pie: Find an active duty or veteran in your neighborhood and march right over and give them that extra pie.  Let them know how much you appreciate their sacrifices.



  • Write a note: Drop a hand written note off to a veteran or their family and just let them know that you are thinking about them during the beginning of this holiday season.  This is especially important if that neighbor has a loved one who is away from home during this season.



  • Post a job: Post a job on our One Day jobs board.  If you need a small project done around your home, from hanging lights to small paint projects, post that job on our One Day jobs board to give a veteran an opportunity to make a few extra bucks during this holiday season.



  • Lastly, Don’t Just Thank a Veteran, Hire One.


Happy Thanksgiving from the HirePatriotsGA.com Team!

Hello, I'm Mark Baird and I founded Hire Patriots. My wife and I are 'helpers.' We are concerned about meeting the practical needs of our US veterans veterans and their families. We began a job board for local residents to post chores that they need help with. It has been very successful. Thousands of local US Military and veterans partially or entirely support themselves from our website. We are looking for others near US Military bases who would also like to have a HirePatriots.com website for their location. We also hold welcome home parties, military marriage retreats, job fairs and create military family gardens.
