One veteran later discussed the singer’s visit, noting that she brought supplies and listened to the stories of several vets.

“Despite all circumstances of how veterans are treated sleeping in tents on asphalt or tiny sheds on land they should call a home, I can say hope and joy was spread to the Veterans,” the nonprofit organization captioned the post. “The authenticity of actually caring and listening was beyond the amazing supplies that@badgalriridonated. Rihanna made that happen when she visited the vets today. Honored to have been witness to this!”
