Each year, November is designated as National Veterans and Military Families Month to thank service members and their families for all their hard work and bravery, and honor those who have died in the pursuit of freedom.
This National Veterans and Military Families Month, America’s Charities is honoring our troops and veterans, and celebrating our nonprofit members who support them with special programs and services made possible by donors like you.
One of the most cost-efficient ways you can support these nonprofits is to donate to them through your employer’s workplace giving program (Don’t have a program?

Wounded Warrior Project, Inc.
Wounded Warrior Project, Inc. is transforming the way America’s injured veterans are empowered, employed, and engaged in our communities. They believe that every warrior has a positive future to look forward to, and we work together to get them there by setting and achieving goals, big or small. We direct every dollar, hour, and action toward helping warriors live life to the fullest, no matter what that looks like. And warriors never pay a penny for our programs – because they paid their dues on the battlefield. Their free services in mental health, career counseling, and long-term rehabilitative care change lives. They’re committed to helping wounded veterans achieve their highest ambition. When veterans are ready to start their next mission, they stand ready to serve. Click here to learn more and support their work.
Feeding America
1 in 5 of the households Feeding America serves have a veteran member in it. It is unacceptable that anyone goes hungry, but it’s particularly troubling that millions of Americans who’ve protected and served our country are left without enough to eat. At Feeding America, they’re working on changing that. Learn more about how you can help us end hunger for veterans. Veterans fought bravely to make the nation a better place for us, now it’s time for us to fight to make it a better place for them.
