Veterans Day Links: Support Those Who Have Served

On this Veterans Day, take a few moments and give support to one of the many organizations that support our veterans, those serving, and their families. Listed below you’ll find many to choose from.

I have had the privilege of knowing and working with some of the fine men and women who have served in our military, and all the organizations I am highlighting came from their recommendations. Unfortunately, there are always some charities in any domain that exist more to serve themselves than to fulfill their stated mission, and veterans support is no different. So check any organization out before giving — but these come pre-approved by folks who know the good from the bad.

Since establishing the Semper Fi Fund in 2004, we’ve issued more than 71,500 grants, totaling close to $91 million in assistance to over 11,500 of our heroes and their families.”
