It's Memorial Day weekend so I think it's an appropriate time to announce what I have been working on for the last five months.

At the beginning of the year, I sought out to start a non-profit organization. It would be ran with dignity and honor, serving and giving back to those whom have served us. Fast forward to beginning of May... We have made it happen! It is officially open and ready for business as a non profit, we are just waiting for finalization on our 501 stat from IRS.

Value for Veterans is directed by myself and include the help of other voluntary members. Our mission is simple: help our veterans and pre-discharged military to a better way of life. We have our first office opened in Mobile and second one opening in Pensacola by end of year.

VFV is launching a very heavy social media (and local radio) ad campaign through Memorial Day to acquire new donors as well as being presented through many online forums that support troops.

You can check out our website for the programs we offer our vets, and donation info. Bare with us on the cigar page, as it has not been completed. In addition to our office, we also want to open a center for the rehabilitation of wounded vets. We have a lot of money to raise. I know it will happen over time.

We are accepting the following items to send overseas to troops: CIGARS, hygiene items, snacks and perishable items, Holiday cards. PM for office address... I will list it publicity in a week or two.

Monetary donations are very important, as they help ship items and also build to fund the portion of the organization that is service related. I won't list all programs here but can discuss them further in the thread.

Thank you for your support in any way in advance. Looking forward to helping hundreds and thousands our veterans and their families.

Gosh, for someone with a (purported) degree in Communications (...and a minor in Marketing...), you’d think she’d get the website part correct! And you gotta wonder about the other parts of the organization too. [gonzo]

From my experience with non-profit organizations, most, if not all of the people involved are volunteers and finding donators and donations are the #1A and #1B priorities. So I find it a little odd that there were no other posts by CL other than the two in May. I mean, if you’re passionate about something, you try to spread your “gospel” every chance you have, don’t you? 🤔

We have several volunteer women inside our organization. We do way more than cigars. Cigars are like 5% of donations, FYI. That's not a main focus, just a nice byproduct of support.

Regardless of what you all say, I have a really good life and I'm super blessed because I give back and help others. And I will continue to do it. So put it down all you want. Free world baby.

For some people Non Profit is a way of getting a salary before giving charitable donations to the cause. Not sure if this is legit or not but too many non profits give little of the donations to the cause anymore and pocket a lot of it for their time. The NFL was a non profit up until a few years ago, she is probably just jumping on the bandwagon. Claim a cause and military is a hot button topic recently and make a salary. I am very skeptical of new non profits that have to do with armed forces recently. It's a shame but also the world we live in today.
