VETS2INDUSTRY Foundation, Inc is a nationwide 501c3 nonprofit  FREE virtual resource and benefits Library and networking community that has utilized full on grassroots outreach to support over 45,000 service members and their families. We are one of the fastest growing nonprofits and are now at a position where we need to increase our resources to support the over 30,000 followers on our LinkedIn page, and 45,000 visitors to our website. All of our 130 volunteers including our Founder Brian Arrington, are either Active duty, Guard, Reserve service members, retirees and transitioned service members, military spouses, dependent adult children, or part of a few non military but staunch military advocates.

There are 270,000 transitioning service members and their families that get out of the military each year and all of them face uncertainty and lack of knowledge of the free resources and benefits that Veteran Service Organizations can provide. They do not even know what a Veteran Service Organization is. This is why VETS2INDUSTRY is so important. We are the only Active Library comprised of 130 volunteers nationwide that help guide, mentor and coach service members and their families on how to transition and direct them to life saving resources so that they do not become part of the 22 whom kill themselves a day, or unemployed, underemployed, on substance abuse, divorced, homeless, or incarcerated. Or any combination of those.

This resource library is housed at vets2industry.com

The money will help us grow VETS2INDUSTRY so we can build our veteran resources library and hire our first transitioning veteran by July 2021 to assist in case management and marketing of VETS2INDUSTRY resources and services. Our goal is $100,000 but any support of our service members and their families are extremely appreciated.  

In the photos attached, you will see us engaging in Feeding homeless vets and non vets during holidays, an accidental run in of a homeless veteran needing groceries and employment and veteran security guard needing mental health resources at a rest stop visited by our founder, giving out free clothing to homeless veterans and non vets and providing them free haircuts, putting on workshops, networking events and resource booths for transitioning and transitioned service members.
