Why We Are Needed
Almost 1.2 million Veterans Live Below the Poverty Level and countless numbers are Residing in Sub-standard and Transitional Housing.
4-million Veterans have a service-connected disability.
Veteran women are more than three times as likely as non-veteran women to live in poverty and experience homelessness.
United Relief Foundation diligently respects and protects the privacy of the Veterans we serve. Army Veteran Theron insistence to make a video testimony was the exception.
Started on the premises to turn distressed houses into affordable homes for Veterans, Home Sweet Home now focuses on safe shelter for Homeless Veterans, the rigors Homebound Veterans have to adequately maintain their residence, addressing the challenges of sub-standard housing and making a transitional living situation, as temporary as it may be, feel like home.
