Veteran’s Passport to Hope (VP2H) is a
non-partisan, non-paid, all volunteer group of individuals who have both
military and civilian backgrounds. Our Society is helping the new organization
by assisting in the area of Financial Management with our Non-Profit
status.
VP2H’s mission consists of three main focus
areas: Awareness, Fund-Raising, and Cooperation:
AWARENESS: VP2H’s Primary
mission is to raise awareness within the Colorado area about the issues Veterans
face: Multiple tours in combat zones, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD),
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), high unemployment rate, high homelessness rate,
high divorce rate, and a record high suicide rate. As the military mission
winds down in Iraq and Afghanistan and veterans reintegrate themselves into
civilian society, we believe that this awareness will foster an understanding of
their efforts and compassion for their struggle.
FUND-RAISING: VP2H’s secondary
mission is to raise money for Veteran friendly non-profits. Through due
diligence and research, we organize fund raising events which support local,
Veteran friendly non-profits. We only support high quality charities that
maximize their accountability to veteran’s causes and are transparent in their
fund raising and giving practices.
COOPERATION: VP2H’s tertiary
mission is to act as a rallying point for other Veteran friendly non-profits.
Our goal is to organize and conduct meetings with the leadership teams of these
groups within the Colorado area with the goal of finding ways for us to work
together more efficiently. We believe that by working together and by sharing
ideas, we can reduce competition between non-profit groups and more efficiently
and more effectively help Veterans.
