Operation Veterans Outreach

Soldiers’ Angels is thrilled to announce a revamping of Operation Veterans Outreach to more-directly connect veterans who need assistance with the people who want to help them. 

Propriety Operation Outreach software on the new site allows applicants in need to post pictures and background about their military service as they request donations of time, money, services or materials.  Patriotic Americans thenbrowse a list of current needs or sign up to be notified of future postings based on keywords, type of need and location of the recipient. 

“It’s like Craig’s List for America’s Veterans,” says Soldiers’ Angels Chief Program Officer Lance Dowd.  “The real power of this new site is its ability to galvanize the community surrounding a veteran to become personally involved in supporting that veteran.  We’re continuing to enable all Americans to make a measurable difference in the lives of our nation’s military men and women, which is the unique power of Soldiers’ Angels.” 

To be eligible for assistance through Operation Veterans Outreach, applicants must be a transitioning/wounded or honorably discharged (Honorable or General Discharge status) member of any branch of the US Military, including National Guard, Reserves and Coast Guard.  Eligibility is also extended to the immediate family of those killed in action.

We Are Thankful For The Troops

Thank You

I want to give thanks to all those that served out country and those that are serving now.   We must never forget the “Freedom is not Free”. And you all put your lives on the line and leave family and friends to protect our way of life.  Without you, we would not be the greatest country in the World.

 

 

Remember that it is not just humans that are Vets

Flanders fields

I

n Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Remember Me
