## About Relief Foundation or Veterans

Our mission is to remove barriers faced by returning veterans.
We aim to be a pillar in the community, where we will offer our services to returning veterans. We plan on addressing the increasing population of homeless veterans and connecting veterans in need to proper mental health services, including a mental health hotline, as well as our pets for vets program. Our youth program will include assisting kids with ROTC entry and getting them prepared for the class. Additionally, we are looking to increase college enrollment and make sure veterans have the proper transportation to doctor's visits.
