This organization was founded in 2008 by two veterans from Chicago, my former students, who are working very hard to help Chicago area veterans suffering financial hardship with job training, placement and educational loans while simultaneously addressing community needs such as school safety and mentoring of youth. Veterans benefiting from the scholarship program are required to give 100 hours of community service in exchange. The organizations leaders are working very hard to use more than 80% of donations to directly assist veterans. Check out Leavenoveternbehind.org to learn more
