INDIANA - This Veterans Day, Indiana communities are invited to join a powerful national movement—Operation Green Light for Veterans—by illuminating buildings, homes, and landmarks in green from November 4-11, 2025.

Why Green?
The green light is a symbol of hope, support, and recognition for the sacrifices made by our veterans. It’s a simple but meaningful way to show that they are seen, appreciated, and supported—not just on Veterans Day, but every day.

How Local Media Can Help:

Spread the Word: Share stories of local veterans and highlight how your community is participating.
Encourage Participation: Urge residents and businesses to change one visible light to green—on a porch, in a window, or at the office.
Use Your Platform: Promote the initiative on-air, online, and on social media using #OperationGreenLight.
Cover Local Events: Feature green-lit landmarks, interviews with veterans, and community efforts to raise awareness of available resources.
