Help Us Support Spouses and Families
At the Veteran Spouse Network, we’re committed to making all of our programs free for participants. While much of our work is funded through grants and subcontracts, we’re continually creating new, participant-centered opportunities, and many of these initiatives need additional support to come to life.
Your generosity makes this possible. Together, we can uplift the military and veteran families who sacrifice so much for us. If you’re able, consider making a gift today to help us continue this work.
Giving Tuesday: Support Military & Veteran Families
This Giving Tuesday, on December 2, 2025, we’re inviting our community to help sustain the programs that offer spouses and families connection, community, and care. If you’re able to give, your contribution at any level directly supports the services our families rely on year-round.
Your generosity has real impact:
- $25 supports one Social Club session, building connection and reducing isolation.
- $50 funds one PTSD peer support session for a military and veteran spouses.
- $100 provides Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) materials for participants learning to support their communities.
- $250 enables 10 one-on-one peer support interactions, offering personalized guidance and encouragement.
- $500 helps 25 individuals receive MHFA training, equipping them with life-saving skills.
- $1,500 supports an entire 6-week V-SRG group, providing a structured space for spouses navigating similar challenges.
We are deeply grateful for every way you show up for this community—today and every day.
