Help
Four ways in. All of them fund the same thing — a Chicago veteran who now has a unit again. Real destinations, real onboarding, real receipts.

Direct funding
Give to a specific pillar, the Campus, or general operations. Donor-directed, tax-deductible, receipted.

Institutional + business
Direct your sponsorship to a pillar, the Campus vision, or general operations. Specifics get shaped in conversation, not templated in tiers.

Serve on the ground
Volunteer roles are organized by pillar. Shift-based, ongoing, mentor, or operations — pick the work that fits.

Formal team seat
Pillar Team Leader, Board Director, Board Officer, staff, committee, advisor, or intern. Application, interview, and onboarding through the Foundation team.
Highest leverage
Insurance, technology, rent, staff coverage, emergency needs, and gap funding across pillars. Directors deploy general dollars against the highest-priority operational need.
Standing with veterans
The Chicago companies, nonprofits, universities, and community organizations building alongside the Foundation.
