On July 4, 1987 the definitive Welcome Home events for the Vietnam veterans took place in Washington DC, aired on HBO, and included a vast number of celebrities/musical entertainers in a 5-hour+ extravaganza that Congress declared as the official Welcome Home day for the vets. The event raised consciousness about vet issues and also millions of dollars for vet causes through the associated 501(c)(3) foundation, Welcome Home, Inc.
âAs benefit concerts go,â wrote the New York Post, ââWelcome Homeâ was a more unified and successful event, in terms of both its music and its message, than such well-intentioned spiritual brethren as âLive Aidâ and âFarm Aidâ.â
