🐾 FOSTER FOUND🐾

TEMPORARY FOSTER NEEDED — VETERAN COMMUNITY 🐾

We’re looking for someone within our veteran community who may be willing to open their home to a veteran’s dog while they focus on treatment.
She is a female Shepherd mix and will need a safe, caring place to land for approximately 2–3 months. This is strictly temporary—her veteran loves her and the goal is simply to make sure she is well cared for until they can be reunited. ❤️
An appropriately sized crate will be provided, along with her food and treats for the duration of her stay.
Keeping her within the veteran community would mean a great deal and would give her veteran one less thing to worry about while focusing on getting better.
If you’re interested in fostering her, or would like more information to see if she might be a good fit for your home, please reach out to Operation Rebuild Hope.
Sometimes supporting a veteran means looking after the one waiting for them to come home. 🇺🇸🐾

What an incredible day at the Bryan's Home Memorial Fundraiser! ⛳️

Hosted by the Veterans Golf Club of Southern Oregon at Bandon Crossings Golf Course, the event was a tremendous success. More than 80 golfers came together for a full 18 holes of golf, fellowship, and support for an amazing cause.
Every dollar raised will go directly to Operation Rebuild Hope and Bryan's Home, helping continue their mission of serving veterans and those in need.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who participated, volunteered, donated, and helped make this event possible. Your generosity and support are making a real difference.
Together, we're honoring Bryan's legacy and building hope for our veteran community.

Bryan’s Canteen is getting stocked thanks to an incredible act of generosity!
A huge thank you to AMEN and the US Coast Guard for donating 29 boxes of canned goods and dry food to Operation Rebuild Hope. Because of your kindness, the pantry will be filled and directly support the veterans and families we serve. Every donation is a reminder that community is the thread that binds us; and we are so grateful to be apart of one that continues to show up for our veterans. 🪖🛠️💚
