We’ve just launched our Non-Profit Page. Follow our page to learn how you can change your life and the lives of fellow service members! Billets Foundation Objectives 1. Financial Relief for Service Members: Our primary objective is to alleviate financial strain on service members during Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves. We achieve this by offering financial assistance for lodging expenses incurred during transitional periods between homes. 2. Community Enhancement near Military Installations: We endeavor to improve the quality of neighborhoods surrounding military installations. By acquiring properties in these areas, refurbishing them, and making them available for long-term rental through platforms like Billet, we aim to enhance the living conditions for service members and their families. 3. Transitional Lodging Support: We provide temporary lodging solutions for service members transitioning out of the military. Whether they require short-term accommodations while finalizing their plans or need assistance to re-establish themselves post-service, we offer a supportive environment to facilitate their transition.

Military Special Operation Family Collaborative’s (MSOFC) founding work revealed concerning challenges impacting America’s warfighting families. A mere 13% of families from Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps special operations units felt their basic needs were met, while only 18% of spouses felt able to pursue personal goals. Alarmingly, service members were delaying essential healthcare for an average of 13+ years. The intensity of service in special ops resonates profoundly throughout the entire SOF family. MSOFC raises awareness to SOF pitfalls and emphasizes the development of healthy foundations that can fortify special operations families. Our programs foster awareness, teach SOF families to identify signs of stress, and take proactive measures to establish healthy checkpoints and flourish. Military Special Operation Family Collaborative’s mission is imperative. Will you support it and help push free family programs and resources into our active and veteran community?

🌟 Honoring the Unseen Heroes: The Legacy of Military Children 🌟 These young heroes grow up in a world that's constantly changing, with challenges that many of us can only imagine. Yet, their strength, adaptability, and sense of duty are nothing short of inspiring. Research and anecdotes alike tell us that children of military personnel are significantly more likely to follow in their parents' footsteps and serve their country. This isn't merely a coincidence; it's the result of a unique upbringing that instills values such as loyalty, honor, and a profound sense of service from a very young age. Military children witness firsthand the sacrifices made for national security and are imbued with a deep understanding of what it means to commit to a cause greater than oneself. By supporting USA Cares, you can help keep these military-connected children safe remain safe and with their families. Join us in changes lives by donating today.
