Been donating turned items to the local VA hospital for a number of years through our local chapter. Made it out this morning to the local Woodcraft store to partake in their Turning For Troops pen turning weekend. All items get sent to active & hospitalized military personel. If you have a local Woodcradt store, please consider stopping by your store thru Sunday and turn a pen and show your support for our miltary durning this Veterans Day weekend. Rocker also has a turning event tomorrow at their stores.

I would think so. Contact them to find out and confirm. Also, I believe there must be some type VA facilities (probably multiple) on the islands. You could contact them and probably donate directly. I'd guess you might have a chapter member with some type of contact (or know of somebody with contacts) within the system already.
