Memorial Day is twelve days away.

On that day, we will honor the fallen. The ones who gave everything. The ones whose names are carved into stone.

But there is another group of veterans we do not talk about enough on Memorial Day: the ones who came home. The ones who served, survived, and then spent years fighting a different kind of battle, against a system that was supposed to support them and did not.

NLSP's Veterans Legal Assistance Project exists for those veterans. Our attorneys pursue discharge upgrades, recover denied VA benefits, eliminate debt, and prevent evictions. We see the whole person, not just the case.

This Memorial Day, we are asking you to do more than remember. We are asking you to honor the fallen by fighting for the living, and securing someone's future.

Our goal is $25,000 by June 1. Will you make a gift today? https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/donation-form/donate-to-make-a-difference-7875

We mean it when we say every dollar counts. For a small organization, each donation strengthens its ability to meet a community's immediate need, attract and retain staff from the community, and plan for the near future. Supporting these local nonprofits makes a tangible difference in the lives of neighbors whose paths we may cross.

On May 12, our region's second annual Day, explore 100+ small, local nonprofits at GiveGreaterDC.org!
