Ex-Navy man Thomas “TJ” Henderson, the former chair of Caesars Entertainment’s business impact group Salute, has made it his life’s mission to lead in service to the veterans community, long after they’ve left the battlefield.

Now Henderson—who helped raise nearly $300,000 for veteran organizations through Salute, created Caesars’ Salute loyalty card and the “Salute to Warriors” bracelet event in the World Series of Poker—has branched out with Veteran Social Club, a nonprofit that “enhances the best aspects of being a veteran without silos or restrictions,” he says.

VSC will host a free Veterans Appreciation Night at Downtown’s veteran-owned Hudl Brewing Company (1327 S. Main St. #100) on November 10 at

5 p.m.

“I would like to focus on the veterans as they are now, where they are going, and how this community can help them move forward,” Henderson says.

Any donations received will also feed directly back into the local veteran community, he says.
