Our 2010 Goal:

To directly financially assist 100 families.
Maybe even More!

Rebuild Hope has already distributed 370 monthly grants to 42 families assisting 63 adults and 58 children living in 13 states. And we have provided financial counseling, coaching and referrals to many more.

Rebuild Hope has also helped disabled current era veterans obtain thousands of dollars of financial support from other organizations.

 

What We Do

Americans have repeatedly demonstrated their unmatched compassion and generosity, helping millions of people around the world deal with severe hardships. Now it's time to help an equally worthy community, our current era veterans who personally suffer from the life-altering wounds of war. Thousands of these veterans and their families are now struggling to pay the most basic of living expenses, and many live below the poverty level.

Believing Americans can no longer ignore this silent crisis, Rebuild Hope offers them an immediate and easy away to help these families. Our one-of-a-kind, national network "connects" donors to beneficiaries, and we provide complementary services that increase the veterans odds of success.

Who We Help

Through Rebuild Hope donors help the families of current era veterans who are

  • dealing with serious service-connected injuries or illnesses,
  • experiencing short term unexpected financial problems,
  • committed to finding solutions that bring them financial stability within a year,
  • and would significantly benefit from our financial assistance.

To qualify for financial assistance applicants must meet several criteria.

  • The veterans must have received a medical disability of 50% or more.
  • Their medical disability must be connected to military service after September 11, 2001.
  • They must demonstrate they can achieve a positive cash flow within 6 to 9 months.
  • All required documentation and references must be provided.

How We Help

Veterans who join Rebuild Hope receive the following benefits

  • Financial assistance, generally for a 3 to 9 month period
  • A 12-month budget to guide their decision-making and actions
  • Referrals to counselors who can help them renegotiate loans
  • Referrals to other organizations that can supply basic resources
  • Public recognition of the sacrifices they have made for our country
  • Confirmation that asking for help is worthwhile

Donor Perspectives & Benefits

Rebuild Hope offers donors the following benefits:

  • An easy and convenient way to help our beneficiary families
  • Knowledge of who receives help and why, assurance that beneficiaries are properly vetted.
  • A flexible set of donor options: beneficiary - directed, advised or delegated and operations
  • Assurance that 100% of beneficiary donations are distributed
  • Favorable tax treatment
  • A choice of private or public recognition

Even $25.00 donations can make a big difference in a family's quality of life.

While veterans DO receive excellent medical care, the service-connected disability compensation they can receive from the Veterans Administration is generally modest. When you review the beneficiary profiles on this website you will appreciate that even small donations of less than $100.00 can add up quickly to fulfill an important need. While that may not seem like a lot, consider that after paying for housing and utilities many families live on less than $800 a month!
