Today we honor the Battle of Iwo Jima.

In 1945, more than 80,000 Sailors and Marines from the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Marine Divisions confronted a deeply entrenched enemy on volcanic rock for 36 days. Japanese forces raked the beaches with devastating fire, but the Marines pushed forward.

They seized the high ground of Mount Suribachi within days and, after a month of relentless combat, secured the island.

The image of the flag-raising on Mount Suribachi endures as a powerful symbol of American unity, sacrifice, and the unbreakable will of a Marine.

To the veterans of Iwo Jima and all who served: your courage and sacrifice are never forgotten. VetStarts stands with you. 🇺🇸

Three women. One mission. Countless lives changed.

Behind every smile at VetStarts is a story of courage. Each sign held in this photo represents a promise: you are not alone, and hope is real. What happens when veterans and first responders find a safe place to heal and connect? Purpose returns. Friendships grow. Life begins to feel possible again.

If you or someone you know needs a community that truly cares, reach out or join our next workshop. đź’™

Together, we write new chapters of strength.

Hands speak louder than medals today. Each print tells a story of hope. Why did runners pause before and after the race to add their mark? Because every handprint is a promise that no veteran stands alone. Run for the V, powered by Benbrook VFW Post 10429, brings our community together for real change. Want to leave your own mark?

Today we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his legacy of courage, justice, and service to humanity.

Dr. King's dream of equality and his commitment to nonviolent change continue to inspire us. His words remind us that "the time is always right to do what is right."

At VetStarts, we stand for the values Dr. King championed: dignity, respect, and the belief that every person deserves support and hope. We're committed to serving veterans and first responders with that same spirit of compassion and purpose.

Happy MLK Jr Day. 🇺🇸

Your art. Your story. Your healing.

Warrior Art isn't about being "good" at painting. It's about being honest. It's about taking what's inside and putting it on canvas. And discovering that you're not alone in the process.

This is where veterans find their voice. 🎨

January 16, 1991: Operation Desert Storm Begins.

Today we remember the combat phase of the Persian Gulf War—a pivotal moment in military history. On this date, a U.S.-led coalition launched a massive air campaign against Iraq, following its invasion of Kuwait.

We honor the service members who answered the call during Operation Desert Shield and Desert Storm. Their courage, sacrifice, and dedication during this conflict shaped modern warfare and demonstrated the strength of international coalition efforts.

To the veterans of Desert Storm and their families: your service and sacrifice are never forgotten. VetStarts stands with you. 🇺🇸

R.E.D. Friday: Remember Everyone Deployed.

Today we honor the service members who answered the call. Their sacrifice, courage, and dedication inspire us every day.

At VetStarts, we stand with those who served and their families. We're committed to supporting veterans as they transition to civilian life and find purpose beyond the uniform.

Thank you for your service. We remember you. 🇺🇸

The only way out is through.

Healing isn't about avoiding the hard stuff. It's about walking through it—with support, with community, with hope.

At VetStarts, we believe in your strength. We believe in your story. And we're here to walk alongside you every step.

You're not alone. đź’™

Hope looks like this. 🎨

For our veterans and first responders, creative expression isn't just about making art—it's about finding yourself again. In our Warrior Art workshops, we've watched veterans transform pain into purpose, isolation into community, and darkness into color.

Every brushstroke is a choice. Every canvas is a conversation with yourself. And every workshop reminds us why we do this: to pierce the darkness of veteran su***de by providing hope for today and a plan for tomorrow.

Your service matters. Your story matters. You matter.

Ready to pick up a brush? Join us for our next Warrior Art workshop. No experience needed—just show up.

As we gather around our trees and dinner tables today, our hearts are full of gratitude—but they are also with those who aren't home.

Today, we honor the brave men and women currently deployed across the globe, standing watch so we can celebrate in peace. We also hold a sacred space in our hearts for the families who have an empty chair at their table this year—those remembering a hero who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

To our veteran community, our supporters, and our Gold Star families: We see you, we honor you, and we are with you.

Merry Christmas from all of us at VetStarts.
