We Are Stronger Together

Did you know that philanthropic funding for military and veteran causes hovers nationally at just 0.68 percent of total U.S. giving? Most philanthropic funding is heavily concentrated within a small fraction of the largest national and regional organizations, leaving hyper-local non-profits, grassroots initiatives, and community chapters to compete on incredibly lean budgets.

Do you want to support veterans in Massachusetts? The events listed below are a good place to start if you want to support organizations with local programs––while also having a great time!

The Veterans Collaborative is an all volunteer project operating on under $1,600/year. We aren’t in need of funding right now, but if your organization is having a fundraiser or is offering grants that veteran-serving organizations in Massachusetts can apply for, we encourage you to submit them at the link below so we can help get the word out here!

When you submit events to the shared calendar use the fundraiser, volunteering, or grants tags along with any appropriate regional tags based on the location of the fundraiser or volunteer opportunity or when grant opportunities are limited to organizations operating in specific regions. This will ensure the events show up on this page as well as relevant regional resource pages.
