Support Organizations for US Troops
STEP UP 4 VETS has selected the following organizations as worthy veterans' support services that we hope to benefit greatly through a financial grant.  Road 2 Recovery - The Road 2 Recovery group's mission is to help make a difference in the lives of Wounded Warriors by assisting with their mental and physical rehabilitation programs. Each year they stage a series of cycling events to improve morale, and raise money for cycling rehab programs, equipment, clinics and outings for U.S. Veterans.The National Veterans Foundation (NVF) has operated the only toll-free, live crisis management and information and referral hotline for ALL veterans and their families since 1987. The NVF is staffed by a team of veterans (from Vietnam,the Cold War, Desert Storm, Bosnia, Iraq, and Afghanistan) who are specially trained in the delivery of crisis information and referral services, as well as a team of licensed volunteer counselors to who all crisis calls are routed. The NVF's limited financial resources only allow for their telephone lifeline to operate twelve hours a day. STEP UP 4 VETS will assist NVF in their efforts to raise additional funds to ensure that they can keep the lines open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Your generous contributions will help STEP UP 4 VETS support the NVF's mission to always be just a phone call away for veterans in need. |
