St. Clair Shores students write thank you letters to veterans

Fourth and fifth graders had a special assignment at Elmwood Elementary in St. Clair Shores thanking our veterans for their service.

All of the children wrote letters and saying thank you.  Some of them know a veteran - or someday want to serve.

They are learning a lot about our military - and the importance of saying thank you. The letters are part of an ongoing partnership with the Little Caesar’s down the street on Greater Mack Avenue.

Each Veteran's Day they give away free pizza to veterans - a lunch combo and a that very special letter from the kids.

Veterans can get their free pizza and letter at the Little Caesars on Greater Mack from 11 to  2 on Sunday.

Watch the video to see the children read the letters and to find out their impact on the veterans.
