LAS VEGAS - nvtip -- Help R Heroes, a 501(c)(3) non-profit is kicking off woodworking classes for veterans starting April 11. Quilting and candlemaking classes are also available. Classes are held at 2411 Western Avenue, Suite G, Las Vegas, NV, 89102 from 10 AM-1 PM. Veterans can register at helprheroes.charity.

Gary Scaife, a Vietnam War Navy veteran, knows that veterans face PTSD, alienation, and feeling alone. Additionally, some veterans may face financial struggles. He founded Help R Heroes in 2021 to offer crafting classes to veterans.

"Veterans are able to use their hands and their minds again, as part of a group. It gives them a purpose. And the business gives them a direction," says Mr. Scaife.

All materials, equipment, instruction, and use of the training facility are provided to veterans free of charge. Veterans in need of help with financial support will be offered income-producing opportunities and a route to financial independence.

• Quilting classes will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays from April 7-April 23.
• Artisanal Candle Manufacturing classes will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays from April 8-April 24.
• Beginning Woodworking classes will be held on Fridays from April 11- April 25.

Veterans can register at https://helprheroes.charity. Non-veterans can support the organization by purchasing veteran-crafted goods at https://shop.madeinnevada.org/vendor/vet-made.
