Opportunities and Homeless Veterans

Opportunities and Homeless Veterans

For a Sunday afternoon memo, let's keep this short and easy. There are three quick keys to distinguishing yourself from the pack.?

- Showcase skills & abilities over certificates

-?Express passion & desire over random ideas

- Demonstrate substance over surface interests

As we look ahead to college and entrance into the workplace?thereafter, I like to focus students on building their unique basket of skills and abilities, pursuing?their true internal passion and desire, and then demonstrating real substance for who they want to become (fresh from last week's memo).

What does this have to do with homeless Veterans? Most don't have a pathway to build upon their skills and abilities, pursue their?internal passion and desire, or demonstrate real substance. Unless they are cared for by great organizations like Homes for the Brave, who work daily with struggling Veterans in this way, they don't have people advocating for their interests.?

My band Gold Dust?is advocating for their interests. We are playing a dedicated show to support Veterans being cared for at Homes for the Brave. But we need your help. Will you please join us in advocating?for their interests by clicking here?to make a donation?

We thank them for their service. I thank you for your support!
