“Thank you! I love how all of you are as excited as me when good things happen and just as sad when the bad comes. All of you are truly amazing, and I wouldn’t be where I am without y’all. Helping me find jobs, bus passes, just being there… anything you actually help with is huge.”

Veteran Success Story

“It was a relief when Kendall got there. I could tell there was a low lift even from him. He hadn’t had a haircut in 4 months, I mean, he had no money coming in. When I tell you, all of his social determinants of health are really being met here; they are really being met. I’m just amazed, and I guess you could say veterans and taking care of veterans.

And even once my son gets to the place that he moves on, I will still support. I still want to keep the relationship with them. I wanna give, just because I know you pay it forward. You know all the things they poured into my son in less than 90 days; how do you not want to give back?”
