Organizer VAGA - Veteran's Advocacy Group of America
Organizer of 4th Annual Veterans Thanksgiving Appreciation Giveaway Drive-Thru
The Veterans Advocacy Group of America (“VAGA”), a 501(c)3 organization, has been helping veterans and their families since 2010.
We gained experience on what veterans and their families need, having spent months in the VA hospitals and veteran rehabilitation centers in Southern California.
By seeing firsthand what their needs are and talking to them we have a better understanding of their individual situations. VAGA has seen what is needed and we understand that our veterans deserve the best. Our veterans fought for our country, our safety and our government and now we must fight for them; to ensure that they have excellent health benefits, job opportunities, career training, continue educational opportunities, and family assistance.
Our goal is to assist our veterans with whatever needs that arise to show our appreciation for their service to our country.
The veterans program empowers those who have served our country with the opportunities to have a program that provides community housing, networking, benefit hotlines, educational programs, job training and mentoring, along with personalized unprecedented leadership for change.
Serving our veterans with commitment, compassion, and respect.
