The Patriot Post® · Texas Man Turns Christmas Trees Into Canes for Vets

“US Army veteran Jamie Willis started ‘Canes for Veterans Central Texas’ in 2016 when he realized he wasn’t the only veteran who needed a cane that was safe and sturdy. Willis served in the army for 8 years and is now disabled and unable to work.”

“‘I do this so I don’t sit home all day feeling sorry for myself,’ Willis [said]. ‘This is all out of kindness. I do everything out of pocket and from donations.’”
