Mission: Our mission is to provide short-term financial support to the families of Veterans who have passed away unexpectedly and to honor those who chose to answer the call.
Results: In our first year, we were able to provide short-term financial support to a Veteran family, helping them maintain their way of life and keep their family home after the heartbreaking loss of their husband and father.
In our second year, we expanded our support to two Veteran families. This assistance allowed one family to purchase a new vehicle, as their primary mode of transportation had been the husband's work truck. The assistance we provided also helped another family cover child care services for their young children during this difficult time.
As of 2025, we have already provided support to one Veteran family and are currently working with two additional families. This brings the total number of families we’ve assisted in the first quarter of the year to three.
At the Call On Me Foundation, we are deeply committed to supporting those who have given so much, and it is an honor to be there for these families in their times of need.

After my husband tragically passed away at 37 years old our world and hearts were completely shattered. During the weeks afterwards when even functioning is difficult, The Call on Me Foundation reached out to assist myself and our daughters. Nick and James have lived through the experience of losing people you love dearly so their compassion and care greatly helped us in our time of need. Their communication and dedication to raising funds for us to travel to the United States from Australia for my husband’s burial helped is greatly appreciated as we were able to travel without added financial stress. They went above and beyond for us and even organised care packages for my daughters when we arrived. The work that this foundation does is so important and we will forever be in their debt. Thank you again.
