We are a multi-faceted organization
From collecting and distributing toys for underprivileged children, to providing funeral honors for Marines, Sailors, and other Veterans, the Rio Grande Valley Detachment is here to support our community. Found out more about our community programs below.
Toys for Tots
Every year, in association with the Marine Corps Reserves, we collect unwrapped toys and help distribute them throughout the RGV.
Veteran Funeral Honors
Each year, too many of our brothers and sisters pass on. However, we are here to make sure they receive full honors.
Scholarships
We have established the Sgt Juan Calderon Jr Memorial Scholarship for deserving children of Marines and other veterans of the RGV. Find out more by clicking HERE
Community Service Projects
If you know a veteran in need of assistance, we can help. From home maintenance to basic yard care, we are here to support.
Veteran Nursing Home Visits
Our members embrace our belief that no Marine should be left behind. We frequently visit Veterans in Nursing Homes.
