American V.E.T.S., is a Ventura, California organization that uniquely helps homeless Veterans regain meaning and purpose by asking them to take part in something important and profound, like raising the American flag. The organization acts as a liaison between homeless Vets and organizations in the area who wish to hire the homeless as daily flag raisers at their corporation or government office building.
Statistics show that homeless Veterans make up about 30% of the homeless population in America. In the U.S., they total more than one million living on the streets and struggle for even the basic necessities of life; food, clothing, water, peace and safety.
To help raise funds for the homeless Vets, the organization also sells American flags for home and commercial use. For more information, visit http://americanvetflagpoles.org/.
