| Our inaugural Pound the Ground for Vets 5K Run/Walk, August 30, 2009, is intended not only to increase public awareness of veterans' issues but also provide a fun way for the community to support the men and women who proudly served our country.
Whether you choose to participate on race day, simply fundraise online - or both - your contribution is vital to our continued success. All proceeds will benefit the Veterans Outreach Center, Inc and its programs, including: employment & training services of our Resource Center; Richards House homeless veterans shelter; counseling and referral services of Clinical & Supportive Services; our retail division, Stars & Stripes Flag Store; and our newest initiative, Operation Welcome Home & Recovery, which focuses on the reintegration needs of our recently returned OEF/OIF (Afghanistan/Iraq era) servicemembers and their families.
Veterans Outreach Center, Inc. is the oldest community-based, not-for-profit, "veterans helping veterans" organization in the United States. |
