We are looking for grant writers who can help us secure funding for our charity for homeless veterans. We have a plan to build 4 facilities here in Texas to house and employ the homeless veterans while they go through a 2 year transition boot camp.

The grant writer would be instrumental in helping us secure funding for the program and helping us to end veteran homelessness in our community. Please contact me with any specific questions you may have, as our plan is pretty elaborate and easier to explain via direct correspondence.

Mission Statement

MISSION STATEMENT: We Got Your Six is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping homeless Veterans rebuild their lives and redevelop their self-confidence. Helping them get back on their feet and back to living a solid stable meaningful life. We will accomplish this through temporary accommodations, housing assistance, employment, and education opportunities. Group events/activities and community events to help build relationships with the locals and get them involved with the veterans road to stability. VISION STATEMENT: To help the homeless veterans of the WORLD to get off the streets and reconnect with the society and their loved ones.

Description

We are a veteran owned and operated Charity that is also a transitional program to help EMPOWER our homeless veterans and help get them off the streets. Our plan of action is below.

We Got Your Six is planning on having 3 ranches located in Texas. They will be located in San Antonio. Houston and Dallas. This will allow us to reach out and cover the whole state of Texas. We will teach the homeless veterans how to farm, grow, and harvest their own food. What we don’t use on the ranch will be taken to farmers markets and sold to help raise money for the organization. The homeless veterans will be responsible for all the repairs, maintenance, and care of the ranch. It’s how they will earn their keep and it gives them something to be proud of, a sense of accomplishment. While they are with us, we will help them rebuild their lives slowly. We have several programs that will help them along the way and we will be teaming up with several companies along the way to assist the veterans on their road to independence and living a life off the streets. We will be the backbone and support structure that a lot of these men and women don’t have.
