Charity

The VSAE Community Service Committee has selected Vets on Track Foundation as this month's charity recipient. The Vets on Track Foundation (VoTF) is a Chesterfield, Virginia-based 501(c) 3 nonprofit organization that works at the grassroots level to reduce veteran homelessness and suicides by providing holistic care for those transitioning from life on the streets. From transitional housing immediately following homelessness, to full-fledged home furnishings in a permanent home, and continuing mental and social care, we inspire our warriors to discover hope, healing, and purpose – we work to ensure every veteran and first responder under our care has the necessary tools to make a successful transition back into their community. Through our Fallen Heroes Initiative, we honor and support the exceptional youth who have suffered the loss of a parent within our first responder or veteran communities by fostering their pursuit of higher education.

Raffle tickets will be sold at the event to raise money for this worthy cause. The charity raffle winner receives an overnight stay with breakfast for two at Hotel 24 South.
