Veterans Memorial News is an APP and website. https://vmnews.us We help businesses help the military community by giving them a location to provide a discount or a reward. We assist veterans by giving them a location to distribute their story, highlight of their career, a moment of bravery or a resume if they are looking for work all free. 

We aim to prevent veteran suicide by giving all veterans a place to stay united. Our goal for the fundraiser is to start a fully sustainable cattle ranch/ horse farm for those homeless veterans or those who may need assistance. 

The homeless veterans cattle ranch will be a self-sustaining cattle ranch focused on providing housing, support, and job training for homeless veterans. This ranch will offer a combination of affordable housing, work opportunities, and therapeutic programs, including equine therapy, to support veterans' mental, physical, and emotional well-being. The goal is to help homeless veterans regain independence, re-integrate into society, and build meaningful careers in agriculture, animal care, and ranch management.

Mission Statement

Objectives

• To provide safe, supportive housing for homeless veterans.
• To offer job opportunities and skills development in ranching, cattle farming, and equine care.
• To integrate equine therapy into the program to help veterans heal from trauma.
• To create a sustainable model that supports both the veterans' livelihood and the ranch’s operations.
