Call For Support
2-Day Event: March 21st & 22nd | AZ State Fairgrounds
This is the largest stand down event in the country & we are experiencing a record number of veterans experiencing housing instability. These events allow veterans and their families who are experiencing housing instability and homelessness to get and stay connected to supportive services. We bring all of the resources and services to one convenient location, such as veteran benefits, healthcare services & screenings, food insecurity needs, dental work & optometry, transitional housing, pet care etc.
The event has the following immediate needs:
Golf carts:
Transportation is needed to support veterans with limited mobility to navigate the different areas of the stand down & access benefits & services. Golf carts are needed for the two day event & can be returned to owner/organization after the event, or owner/organization can volunteer to be a driver for the day! Even better, if there is an organization that wants to donate a golf cart or two, that would be amazing!
Volunteers:
Volunteers are needed to help with a variety of tasks from set-up & tear down to registration & check-in to walking side by side with a veteran helping them navigate the different resources to meet their immediate & long-term needs.
Opportunities between: Thursday, March 21, 6:30AM to 3PM & Friday, March 22, 7AM to 2PM
Volunteers can register here: https://lnkd.in/gUW4xMeU

Examples of what sponsorship funds are used toward: operations such as building rentals, utilities, internet. Food for event participants & volunteers & fees for justice-involved veterans, such as paying court fines, paying license restorations, & paying for interlock devices for DUI offenders.
