Vet or Family Assistance: We provide assistance as needed to Vets Military First Responders or their Families with regard to food clothing housing cost of living such as utilities and other as circumstances arise. We understand the impact on a vet and their family when basic needs are unable to be met. We know that lessening that burden helps to lessen the stress which could contribute to suicide.
Funeral Military Escort - We provided deployment escorts for 2 of Iowas military units last year who deployed to different areas of the world in defense of our freedoms as well as providing plaques flags and funeral escorts for 119 of Iowas veterans who passed away from a multitude of different reasons.
Operation Remember - Free installation and cost of the materials for a 25 freedom edition black flagpole and US Flag. This also includes landscaping around the base. This program is for Iowas Veterans Military Gold Star Families and First Responders. Gold star Families - Gold star families deserve the upmost respect and dignity and should be honored for their sacrifices to this great country. We fully understand that often times when a Gold Star Family is made its so another family can see their service member again. we will never forget these families and will continue to support and honor them whenever and however we can. We were able to assist 9 Iowa families in honoring their loved one who passed away from either combat suicide or training accidents. First Responders - Our mission is to support and provide financial assistance to first responders and their families. our focus is suicide prevention PTSD counseling and funeral assistance. Through this program we were able to assist with 3 funerals where we provided custom plaques and flags honoring the service of Iowas first responders.
