If you gave this month, you kept a family in their home. If you haven’t yet, the line is still long. We take care of our Own. One vet at a time. We didn’t spend this month making speeches. We spent it closing missions.
Campbell needed $2,750 after surgery so his family didn’t lose the house. You did that. Ken’s service dog, Ruffles, had emergency surgery and the rent fell behind. $2,765. You did that too. Matt’s fridge died and took a week of groceries with it. $500. Food’s back in the kitchen. Denean got $1,500 so the utilities stayed on. Mark and his wife in Indiana were one disconnect notice away. $855. Lights stayed on. Jake is an Air Force veteran with two little kids, fighting cancer, staring at eviction. $2,810.75. Still in the house. Tracy is a disabled veteran raising four grandchildren. Dead refrigerator. Behind on bills. $2,500. She can hold on. And Friday the 18th we had a veteran on the phone in a suicide crisis with the electric company ready to cut him off at 5. We sent $350 that afternoon. He’s still here. That’s more than $14,000 in named, one-time helps posted on this page and finished. Not a campaign slogan. Receipts.
We’re still working Gene’s car so he can get to work from his new place. Kevin’s family is trying to get out of a condemned rental. And Stan in Picayune, Mississippi ...Navy vet, with cancer, needs that old F-150 sold so he can catch up on bills. Share that one if you haven’t.
