HOW TO GIVE BACK TO VETERANS IN 2019

As we approach November 11th, it can be challenging to know how you can give back to our veterans. Many charities focus on everything from veteran’s assistance to more targeted organizations focused solely on Special Forces soldiers. To give back to those who are given so much to our country consider supporting our veterans this November. Here are a few places to start:

Disabled American Veterans

https://www.dav.org/
DAV is a nonprofit charitable organization that offers support and services to disabled veterans and their families. They help more than 1.2 million wounded veterans in each year, providing invaluable, life-enriching to those who served in our military. DAV offers disability assistance, VA pensions, job placement services, to name a few programs. Since the government does not fund them, donations and gifts allow the DAV to continue to provide these services.

Wounded Warrior Project

Another organization that helps those injured during their service careers is The Wounded Warrior Project. This organization provides rehabilitation services, and career counseling to wounded warriors and their families. There are many ways to contribute to the Wounded Warrior Project. You can: • Host A Supporter Event • Send Letters To An Injured Service Member • Give A Gift • Donate In Honor Of A Loved One Who Served In The Military • Organize An Employee Giving Drive

Furry Friends Organizations

Emotional support animals and service dogs can play a big part in the lives of veterans. Companies like Petco and Natural Balance offer products that raise money for the military service dog memorial, for example. These dogs save lives during military action and often the needed companions that help veterans heal with the return home.
