Veterans

Veterans make up nearly 1% of the US population. This vast number of individuals, many of which who risked their lives for us, are often on the short end of society once they return to the civilian population. Many veterans lack jobs, training or education. Some veterans suffer from Post-TraumaticStress Syndrome. Yet many others are on the streets, homeless.  In fact, studies show that veterans are four times more likely to die by suicide compared to the general population.

Wells Charitable Foundation supports several 501(c) charities whose mission is to fill the gaps that exist today in the area of Veteran Care. These charities provide counseling, food, job training, and many forms of financial and personal assistance. One charity specifically offers numerous programs to help Veterans in the area of suicide prevention.
