Greetings,

For more than 20 years, United Relief Foundation has created meaningful, lasting differences in the lives we’ve been able to strengthen and elevate through the generosity of our volunteers, donors, and dedicated United in Service partners and patrons.

As we look ahead, United Relief Foundation will continue to move forward quietly and humbly, going about making a tangible impact by focusing on the housing‑related challenges that are hindering a veteran’s stability, dignity, and future. This next chapter is already underway.

In service,
Frank Salato
President

The United Relief Foundation consists of a group of non‑compensated officers, board members, and veteran advisors United in Service with volunteers, partners, and patrons dedicated to doing the good deeds that make meaningful, lasting differences in the lives of the men and women who served in the United States Armed Forces.

For the most part — with the exception of a Good Morning America appearance, occasional media attention, and public accolades — the United Relief Foundation has quietly and humbly gone about Making a Difference by Being the Difference beginning in 2005, and every year from its formal creation in 2006.

Granted, you can receive a charitable tax deduction for unwanted or unneeded real estate. However, by donating a house to help veterans in need through the United Relief Foundation, you receive far more than financial benefits.

The above photograph holds particular sentimental value, as the Coalition of Veteran Organizations participated in the United Relief Foundation’s first housing project.

When it comes to helping veterans in their time of need join the United Relief Foundation in Making Life Changing and Life Saving Differences “…coming to our rescue and we will never forget your generosity, support, and dedication as long as we live. God Bless you All! In Gratitude,”
John and Ayana

Whether you’re thriving, rebuilding, transitioning, or simply curious, the United Relief Foundation encourages women who served — any branch, any era — to attend our United in Service partner National Women Veterans United’s upcoming Stand Down on September 26, 2026. NWVU Stand Downs are dedicated to meet the needs of women who served.
