Stamped with Gratitude: How to Honor Veterans with Thoughtful Corporate Gifts




The Power of Mail Call and Care Packages in Military Tradition


For veterans, mail call was a vital connection to home, providing comfort and support during challenging times. Care packages, filled with personal items, brought a sense of belonging and were a tangible reminder of appreciation. This Veterans Day, your organization can recreate that same feeling by offering personalized gifts that mirror the thoughtfulness of care packages.

These gestures remind veterans that their service and contributions are valued, both in the military and in the workplace.  Recognizing veterans in your organization is not just an act of gratitude—it strengthens bonds, boosts morale, and honors the qualities they bring to your team. Veterans' leadership, resilience, and teamwork enhance your business, and showing appreciation reinforces their importance every day, not just on Veterans Day.

At Geiger, we deeply value the contributions of veterans, which is why we want to share some thoughtful ideas to help you celebrate and honor the veterans in your organization this November 11.

Give Personalized Gift Ideas

Giving personalized gifts is a meaningful way to express your gratitude while creating a lasting memory for the veterans in your organization. Thoughtful, customized items show that you’ve taken the time to recognize their unique contributions, both in their military service and in their current role. These serve as tokens of appreciation and create a deeper emotional connection between the veteran and your organization.

Organize a Veterans Family Breakfast

In the military, "chow time" is a time for service members to come together, share stories, and strengthen their bonds. Hosting a company-sponsored breakfast for veterans and their families brings that same spirit of camaraderie into your workplace. It’s a meaningful way to show veterans that you recognize the importance of those moments of connection, reminding them how much their presence and service are valued, not just by their military family, but by your organization as well.

By gifting products from veteran-owned businesses, you demonstrate that your organization stands behind the values and causes that are close to their hearts. These gifts carry an added layer of meaning, symbolizing your shared support for the veteran community.
