Since 1990, our Mission is “To support local Veterans and
children who are at risk of abuse or poverty, needing food, shelter, clothing,
medical care and basic needs.” We are a
100% volunteer organization with no paid employees, and currently give away
about 87% of all revenue. We are a
recognized 501c3 organization.
Our major fund raiser is the Ralph Kaufman Memorial Golf
Tournament. In addition, we have a
Casino Night and our Trees for Vets project provides Christmas trees and stands
to Veterans and their families at no cost to them. We also have Legal and Dental projects where
Veterans can obtain services either at no or minimal costs. Working with the Veterans Administration and
St. Louis faith-based organizations, we established a Mental Health Cooperative
to ensure no Veterans, and/or family members would be without mental health
services.
