"Veterans ~ Faith, Hope & Support"
"Homeless and at-risk Veterans need more than just shelter. We must give them the tools to empower themselves and reclaim the self-worth and dignity which comes from occupying a place in the American Dream. It is a dream they fought so hard to defend for the rest of us."
The W.S.W. Foundation provides clothing, socks, and hygiene kits to New Directions for Veterans Housing Projects as well as homeless Veterans by making monetary donations, linens, bed Linens, towels, blankets, pillows, and hygiene kits. (We also have selectively handled: Desks, Blenders, Monitors, Computers, Televisions, Coffee Makers, Portable Air Conditioners, and Toaster Ovens.)
The living facilities allow Veterans to obtain a job, learn the necessary skills needed to maintain bank accounts, and develop a discipline for hygiene responsibilities as well as maintaining a residence.
