“The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do, the hard part is doing it…”


- General Norman Schwarzkopf

What We Stand For

Our main goal is to help homeless veterans in need. We provide emergency shelter, food, clothing, medicine, and transportation to make sure they have the basics covered. We also focus on helping those affected by PTSD by helping them get counseling and support to heal their emotional wounds. Our mission is to make a real difference in the lives of these brave men and women who have served our country.

Our Journey and Values

Our journey began with a simple realization: one life can make a world of difference. We were moved by our personal experiences and the desire to make a change, so we decided to help every veteran, family member, and active service member who needed our assistance. The Lost Vets Rescue was born from the passion for helping others, and working together is what drives us forward. We believe that compassion and unity can change the world, and we are committed to making a difference in the lives of those who have served our country.

Our Drive to Make a Difference

We are motivated by a strong sense of caring and kindness. Our driving force comes from our genuine desire to:

Help Veterans in Need: From emergency shelter to counseling, we're here to uplift those who've served.

Offer New Opportunities: We believe in providing veterans with a fresh start, a chance to rebuild and thrive.

Celebrate Overcoming Obstacles: Witnessing veterans conquer post-service challenges fuels our commitment.

Guide the Path to Self-Discovery: We're dedicated to helping veterans rediscover their strength and purpose.

NO VETERAN SHOULD EVER BE HOMELESS!

Foster Belonging: Every veteran deserves to feel valued and connected to a community that cares.

Promote Healing: Our goal is to create an environment where veterans can heal and find inner peace.

Inspiring Stories of Triumph

The heart of our work lies in the success stories we're privileged to witness. Every triumph, every moment of resilience, reminds us of the positive impact we're making. These stories aren't just about overcoming adversity; they're about rediscovering joy, reclaiming life, and finding hope once again.

Nationwide Reach and Connection

Our commitment to veterans extends beyond local boundaries. We're here to help locate and provide support all across the United States. No matter where you are, our digital doors are open, ready to connect and uplift.
