Rhode Island Football Club’s beloved mascot, Chip, made a special visit to VA Providence to thank Veterans for their service in honor of Veterans Day.

While the visit didn’t take place on the holiday itself, Chip brought game-day energy and plenty of smiles to the main lobby. 

Veterans and staff alike were thrilled to take photos, shake paws, and share stories about their service and love for the Ocean State’s soccer team. 

The visit reflected RIFC’s strong partnership with VA Providence, reinforcing their continued commitment to honoring those who’ve served through community outreach and appreciation events.
