M i l i t a r y o r d e r o F t h e p u r p l e h e a r t , r i c h a r d B e t t s c h a p t e r 7 0 0 Chartered by Congress in 1958, The Military Order of the Purple Heart is composed of military men and women who received the Purple Heart Medal for wounds suffered in combat. Although our membership is restricted to the combat wounded and associate members, we support all veterans and their families with a myriad of nation-wide programs by Chapters and National Service Officers. Who We Are: The Richard Betts Chapter 700 is comprised of combat wounded veterans, associate members and volunteers from Hunterdon and Warren counties. What We Do: • Visit veterans in eighteen nursing homes throughout Hunterdon and Warren counties, providing Christmas gifts to each veteran in the homes, along with providing entertainment and companionship. • Visit schools in Hunterdon and Warren counties, sharing our service experiences, history of the P u r p l e Heart and answering questions. • Contribute to scholarships for the children of veterans. • Provide resource information to assist veterans, their dependents and survivors, in obtaining their rightful benefits. • Provide resource information to help veterans and their family members obtain/ replace lost or stolen medals. • Place flags on the graves of veterans. • Attend flag retirement and other ceremonies. • Participate in the installment of monuments in Hunterdon and Warren counties honoring both living and deceased Purple Heart recipients. • Participate in parades and celebrations in Hunterdon and Warren counties. How Your Donation is Spent: Your donations are spent on veterans in both Hunterdon and Warren counties. A minimal percentage of your donation helps us to maintain our insurance, which is required for a 501(c)19 Veterans Service Organization. No member of Chapter 700 receives payment of any kind, nor are any of the funds diverted to any other entity of the MOPH.
