We have completed our Connect Vets Skills Center and are looking at starting to hold events in the Summer of 2021. Our model is what every military member is familiar with on most DoD bases, the Skills Center or Hobby Shop. We need a few things to finish it and start hosting daily and weekly events, so if you have time, money, or materials please think about donating them.
​
Everyone has a skill, trade, hobby, job, etc. Maybe you have been helped to get to where you are at. You want to give back, Vets helping Vets, but are not sure how. Connect Vets would like to speak with you about becoming an instructor or mentor with us.
​
We are looking at connecting veterans to local business owners who want to hire them for vocational positions they have open. We are offering you the opportunity to sponsor or facilitate an event at the skills center to promote your industry and business.
​
You have stuff. Lots of it. Just sitting around. Stuff veterans can use to learn a skill. Maybe tools or materials like parts, wood, metal, fluids. Consider donating them to Connect Vets. We will get them into veterans hands and equipment so that they can thrive.
