As a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), WarCollar’s commitment to veterans is at the core of who we are. Our very own Rochelle Ranson is participating in the DAV 5K because she believes in giving back, not only for herself, but for her friends, family, and coworkers who are disabled veterans. For WarCollar Industries, LLC supporting causes like the DAV 5K means more than sponsorship—it’s about honoring the sacrifices made by our military veterans, active-duty service members, and their families, many of whom are part of our own workforce. We recognize the immense value these individuals bring, and initiatives like this reflect our company’s dedication to creating a supportive, inclusive environment for veterans and their families. From an HR perspective, this initiative underscores WarCollar’s mission to build a culture that values service, dedication, and community. When we rally behind causes that support veterans, it strengthens our employees’ sense of purpose and pride in working for a company that is not only veteran-owned but deeply committed to veteran well-being. It shows our current and future team members that WarCollar is more than just a workplace—we are a family that stands by those who have served and continue to serve. The DAV (Disabled American Veterans) organization supports over 1 million veterans annually by providing essential services—from medical care to financial assistance, education, and employment opportunities—all free of charge. Your support can make a difference. By contributing to this cause, you’re helping veterans and their families access the resources they need and deserve.

While most #Veterans transition smoothly into civilian life, some face service-related challenges that expand the federal governments capacity to address. For those of us in the #VeteranSpace, the need often feels, unending. Consequently, communities, often unfamiliar with #military needs, must support these Veterans. Well intentioned people across #nonprofits, #government, and #CharitableOrganizations, assume what a Veteran needs, and often duplicate services or put resources into solving a problem that doesn't exist. At Veterans Bridge Home, collective impact, remains at the forefront of our mission. Using technology systems like Unite Us with our community partners like Mecklenburg County, North Carolina Department of Military and Veterans Affairs, and The Jeff Cohen Charitable Foundation allows for us to provide wrap around services across the social determinates of health. Even better? We can document those instances to demonstrate what #CharlotteVeterans greatest needs currently are and target our efforts on ensuring those partnerships remain strong. #VeteransBridgeHome #BeTheBridge

Day 24 of the #50Families50Days Campaign TD Foundation provided immediate and direct assistance to a former Green Beret needing financial aid after his pay was withheld due to a clerical error. While serving as an 11B with the 2nd Ranger Battalion, SSG Green was involved in at least two traumatic brain injury events, including an IED vehicle strike and the detonation of an RPG within ten feet. He later earned his Green Beret. Assigned to the 10th Special Forces Group and deployed to Iraq, he was subjected to a chemical agent attack involving mustard gas. These injuries, along with numerous others, led to his decision to leave the military. Due to a confirmed clerical error, his pay was withheld. He needed financial assistance for his security deposit and first month's rent. Thank you note: "Helping one person might not change the world, but it could change the world for one person." He expressed deep gratitude, saying, "Thank you so much for your help. It was such a blessing in our time of need. Life has a way of destroying the best-laid plans, knocking you down, and doing its damnedest to keep you there. Thank you for being the hand to help me back up." To hear more amazing stories of impact from the TD Foundation, please follow along on our social media accounts. Join us in making a difference. One Veteran Family at a Time.
