Memorial Day is a time to reflect on sacrifices made by military members—and how we can support those who are still with us. Older veterans often have different needs than their peers and even the benefits for those who served can be confusing to access.
Our proven methods of outreach and support are helping. Through our nationwide network of Benefits Enrollment Centers (BECs), we are able to help veterans like David, age 75 and living with a disability. David heard about benefits through his local newspaper. Thanks to our BEC partner, David enrolled in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program as well as a utility support benefit. David and his wife now save hundreds of dollars per year and can rest easy knowing their basic needs are no longer out of reach.
Through May 31, you have a chance to DOUBLE your support of this work. Thanks to a generous major donor, ALL GIFTS WILL BE MATCHED dollar-for-dollar up to $50,000.
