WELCOME HOME RECEIVED $17,000 GRANT AWARD

With this funding, these organizations are able to offer a wide variety of services and support to disabled and at-risk veterans.  The charities vary in size, mission, and focus, and grants were awarded based on the size of the grant request, and the direct impact they have on our Veteran communities.
