I am proud to be a volunteer connected to the Starfish foundation. As a staff member of Vets Journey Home, I have the honor of serving the men and women who sacrifice to serve our country, and have witnessed countless people whose lives have been ridden with trauma and pain find healing, comfort and peace in their lives... blessings they may not have received without the financial support of the Starfish Foundation. A Beacon in the community, this foundation shines light onto the journey of the Veterans' path to wholeness and a home-coming of the heart.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
kind, comforting, and offered support in a way that makes people feel safe & accepted, while fostering healing.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
spread the gifts of healing to all veterans who have experienced the trauma of combat and the challenges of serving in the armed forces.
Ways to make it better...
more funds were available to include unlimited Veterans.
