Veterans Day: honor them with a lovely gift

Today we have the wonderful opportunity to learn about the sacrifice service members make; we can celebrate them in many ways. One of them is to donate something special.

Let's applaud Veterans!

In the US, November 11th is the day to honor those who have served and continue to serve the nation. Today the nation comes together to remember and honor the service and sacrifices of our Veterans. Just a reminder for our Italian friends: do not confuse it with Memorial Day, the day dedicated to fallen service members. "Veterans Day – says the Department of Defense - honors all of those who have served the country in war or peace — dead or alive — although it's largely intended to thank living veterans for their sacrifices." It was established for the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, marking the armistice's signing to end the WW1 in 1918. While Veterans Day is a beautiful opportunity to learn about the sacrifice service members make, we can celebrate them in many ways. Let's remember what president John F. Kennedy once said: "As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them."

Meaningful ways to honor Veterans Day

There are so many nice ways to honor this special day. First of all, if you have a veteran in your life, connect and thank them for their sacrifice. Another way is to support businesses that help the military. If you want to show your affection instead, you can thank the veterans in your life with a gift box made from the heart. Here are some ideas.

A lovely way to say "thank you"

One way to show affection and gratitude is to donate a gift voucher. It is simply perfect when you want to surprise your loved ones with a special gift. Since Christmas is now just around the corner, why not donate a traditional dessert in the run-up to the holiday season? Our selection of panettone, pandoro, and torrone is genuinely outstanding. Another option is to buy an excellent little work of art by Frantoio Muraglia. This olive oil producer from Apulia, created The Rainbow Jar, a colorful terracotta olive oil bottle. If you prefer to opt for a lavish gift box instead, our options are endless.

For example, you can choose our organic gift box, with high-quality and organic Italian specialties like pasta, sauce, extra virgin olive oil, and Italian herbs. We also have a special box for your friends in love with truffles. Our Truffle Box contains Italian gourmand truffle specialties like truffle risotto, pasta, and oil and sauce. If you want to give a special gift to your vegan friends, then you must choose our Vegan Box. You will find there, for example, pasta, sauces, herbs, and extra virgin olive oil. The box also includes the recipes! If your friends like to cook, you can give them everything they need to make pizza or a good dish of pasta with tomato sauce. There are so many options, and you can find them all on our website. The most important thing is to give a gift with love!
