All of us at First Light Financial – Thrivent are proud to support opportunities like the Serving Veterans and Their Families in the Community event with the American Legion, made possible through our Thrivent Action Team. This brat fry fundraiser brought people together over good food and fellowship—thanks to the many volunteers who stepped in for setup, food prep, and clean-up. 🍔🌭🧀 Special thanks as well to the Rio Community Club, whose music and entertainment made the day even more meaningful. 🎶 Most importantly, every smile shared was a reminder of why this mission matters: serving veterans, their families, and our community. 💙
