Don't Miss
Every night, veterans wander the streets of Indiana’s cities and towns looking for a place to sleep or a hot meal. The Coalition for Homelessness Intervention and Prevention (CHIP) reports 4,800 to 8,000 homeless persons in the Greater Indianapolis Metropolitan Area on any given night. Of that figure, approximately 600 (25%) are honorably discharged veterans. Nightly, there are over 62,619 homeless veterans nationally, and 126,000 veterans experience homelessness over the course of a year. Sadly, these veterans who are now homeless are the same veterans who served our country with courage, self-sacrifice, honor, dignity, and pride. These veterans are America’s forgotten heroes. They fought for our freedom on the battlefield, and now they and their families fight daily for their survival on America’s streets.
Join us on Tuesday, May 22 as we hear from HVAF, the nonprofit who supports Indiana’s homeless veterans. We’ll also work together to pack backpacks with life essentials, which will be distributed to those in need.
