BB&T Partners with Combat Female Veterans Families United’s Deployed Combat Female Project for Women Warriors in Combat Zones Overseas

Greensboro, NC, July 27, 2019 --(PR.com)-- BB&T supported and funded Combat Female Veteran Families United’s Deployed Combat Female Project in June 2019. CFVF United teamed up with volunteers from BB&T to ship 60 Care packages to female warriors in combat zones, overseas. The supplies were provided by BB&T and this joint effort is to support women who are currently serving in combat zones, away from their loved ones. The project was a success.

If you know a woman service member currently deployed contact CFVF United. The BB&T volunteers are taking part in the company’s 11th annual Lighthouse Project. The teams have each selected a project to assist a nonprofit agency to complete between April and June to make a positive impact on the lives of people in need. BB&T hopes their efforts encourage others in the community to volunteer their time and support organizations such as CFVF United.

Since the inception of the BB&T Lighthouse Project in 2009, BB&T associates have completed more than 11,000 community service projects, donated more than 640,000 hours in volunteer service and touched the lives of more than 16.5 million people. Associates overwhelmingly voted to bring back the initiative this year. For more information about the Lighthouse Project, go to BBT.com/BBT/LighthouseProject/.
