MISSION
Get Unemployed Disabled Veterans Back to Work
VISION
All Disabled Unemployed American Veterans Who Are Willing and Able to Work...Can!

END STATE
Once a Veteran Passes Through our Doors, He or She will Have the Tools, Motivation, and Opportunity to Realize a Prosperous and Happy Life
Time is Running Out!
The Veterans Retraining and Assistance Program (VRAP) ends in March 2014; you only have the next 12 months to sign up. Are you a veteran?, between the ages of 35 and 60?, unemployed?, never used GI Bill in the past? honorable or general discharge? YOU MAY QUALIFY. see: http://benefits.va.gov/vow/index.htm
"One Vet at a Time"
Be Part of the Solution:
Vetmade Industries Inc. is seeking individual veteran sponsorship donations from corporate, business, group, and individual donors.
Problem:
It costs Vetmade around $5,000.00 per month just to train and employ one veteran!
This cost includes keeping the shop doors open, paying the Veteran, providing training, and paying the electric bill etc.
A total six-month stint at Vetmade (the length of our individual training and employment program) costs around $30,000.
Solution:
If companies, corporations, individuals, or groups chip in together and help sponsor just one veteran for the
length of our six-month program, we can continue our mission and not worry about where the next dollar is coming from.
Of course any amount helps, and we will continue to make and sell the finest hand-made woodworking items in the world.
As we move forward, Vetmade will be able to provide better services to our unemployed disabled veteran community.
We need everyone's help!
Most importantly, we can get more disabled veterans back to work and beat unemployment: ONE VET AT A TIME!
