For $100/week, per individual, a homeless Veteran can have a safe place to sleep, a bed with clean bedding, a clean toilet/shower area, laundry facilities, 3 meals a day, electricity for charging personal mobile devices, secure wifi, and professional assistance in finding employment, housing, and being self-sufficient, and mental health support counseling from Bridgeway.

Each month costs $400/individual to cover all of these needs. Since it typically takes someone about three months to put their life back together, we’ve created a $1,2oo sponsorship for a homeless Veteran. Please contact us if you or your company would like to sponsor someone who has given so much for our country.

We can’t wait to seen everyone supporting our local homeless Veterans and strutting their colorful shirts!
