ABDF’s Inaugural Poppy Run Donates $8,000 to Ex-Servicemen Association

The inaugural Poppy Run event hosted by Antigua and Barbuda's ABDF recently brought together locals during Carnival and Independence celebrations. The festive occasion raised an impressive $8,000 for the Ex-Servicemen Association, a vital support group for veterans who have served in the country's military forces.

As Antigua and Barbuda celebrates its rich history dating back to the 17th century as a British colony, events like the Poppy Run serve as a poignant reminder of honoring its past while building a brighter future. The Ex-Servicemen Association plays a pivotal role in supporting veterans who have bravely served their country, providing them with necessary assistance and care.
