. U.S. Vets – Houston has been helping local veterans with housing, workforce and career development, and counseling services since 1997.

Where the city of Houston failed 92-year-old Navy veteran Jessie Lara, the people of Houston have stepped up to help.

Proving everything in Texas is bigger, a Houston truck club has donated more than $100,000 to Tomball-based veterans and active duty military charity, Boots For Troops. Houston Diesels started in 2015 with just a handful of diesel truck enthusiasts.

Houstonians are stepping up in a big way for a 91-year-old Navy veteran we introduced you to last week.
