2023 Impact Report

An Update From Our Leadership.

This years impact report highlights the incredible efforts of our donors and team working together. Despite operating with a skeleton crew for much of the year, our volunteers, employees, and board members united to serve a record number of veterans and their families in the Greater Fox Valley.

We broke records for the third consecutive year, assisting 518 veterans and distributing $207,663.96 in financial aid. Inflation, particularly in housing, food, and transportation costs, drove the increased need for support.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

We want to thank you for your generous support this year in helping our Veterans in need in the Fox Valley area and look forward to continuing doing that in 2023. 

Thankfully, through your support and collaboration with our partners, we have supported over 140 Veterans with over $144,000, be it for housing, food, transportation, utilities, or other needs. 

Wishing you and your families the Merriest Christmas and a Happy New Year. 

President Tim Cody
