The saints that work at Veterans Community Project are Hall of Fame level good people. I was in need during a dark period and their light shined through to help me. God bless everyone who is a part of this wonderful organization 🙏 ❤️

This was a great place to volunteer as at team. Several of the RE/MAX Heritage Realtors in my office worked together to learn about and help build tiny homes for veterans. This was a wonderful project and the staff are very fun to work with when you go. Highly recommend anyone to learn more about this great organization. They're always looking for volunteers and donations if you can help.

Surely any disadvantaged veteran can use a fleece blanket this season. And your reward will be instantaneous. Thanks.

I am a veteran from the 70's. I am homeless and I draw 377$ month. How can I get in one of these tiny houses. I been under Bridges and in tents for over 3 years I need some help

mark bryan | Sep 1, 2019
Charles Beard | Sep 1, 2019

Go to your local VA Hospital find out where universal housing is and or substance abuse treatment is at they will give you information on how to get a hud-vash voucher and then you only have to pay one third of your gross income plus utilities and you have your own apartment but that's how you get started the easiest way checking for substance abuse treatment other than that you're going to have to prove your homeless and do that just by getting a letter of residency runs a homeless shelter there did you go to every once in awhile if you got that you can get by being homeless but like I said go to substance abuse program it's easier. I've got one I'm a veteran of the 80s

I have clothes to Donate, is their a Va pickup service?

Debbie Wallace | Aug 31, 2021
Wendy Twigg | Aug 31, 2021

I found out that if you have donations (clothing; shoes) you want to be picked up, the vets do not benefit from them in any way. Everything goes to Thrift Stores and the proceeds go to a man in New Jersey who happens to own several chains of Thrift Stores. He has become a very wealthy man as a result. If you want the vets themselves to benefit I would suggest actually dropping your donations off at your local homeless shelters. Our donations are going directly to the Veterans Community Project at 89th and Troost in Kansas City, MO.

Have been trying to find out if gift bags or other donations are excepted and what is needed

Amber Bell | Aug 31, 2020
JeanHelene Davis | Aug 31, 2020

The Mayor or another such community leader would need to contact them. Historically all land & infrastructure is given by the City. ( roads , sewers, water & gas lines, etc.) Also important is easy access for veteran care (ie: VA Health Administration with a Med Center not far away being preferred.)

I'm interested in more info. How can I help my fellow veterans.

I am looking for a place to rent. I prefer Missouri.

I'm a Vetean discharged in 1978 have struggled at times how come there is not a tiny home project for Vets in Kansas City KS seems to me that Missouri get a lot more helpor or more help is available why is that

mike schoenberger | Aug 31, 2020
Lyle Carter | Aug 31, 2020

It doesn't work that way. Do you have to keep trying to come there and be there to get a tiny house when the funding is available. It doesn't go by what state you live in.

Two veterans rent a house together, both have epilepsy. Neither of us drives. My "battle buddy" works part time. I'm waiting for social security to decide, while falling further behind financially. Is there a way to keep us from becoming homeless.

Jerold Mckinnel | Aug 31, 2020
Nikki C | Aug 31, 2020

The goal of this program is to help veterans from hitting the point of homelessness. Please reach out to them as soon as you can

Do you have a Vetetans community project planned for DFW area? I and my husband are both Veterans, and I am sure that I could use some of our community connections to facilitate help.

Tonya De Keyrel | Sep 1, 2019
Jacob Aguilar | Sep 1, 2019

I am a veteran who lives here at VCP from what I've been putting together it all depends on the demand wich of course for us is high but the area the city is willing to allocate and the money necessary for the project there a lot involved in just planning a community project but if you'd like to call the vcp hq number I'm sure they can help better answer your question thank you for both your service as well.

Is Kansas City the only place veterans community projects exist? I'm wondering if there's a pvc in N.J?

Judth Chrismon | Sep 1, 2019
JeanHelene Davis | Sep 1, 2019

Not from this organization, just KC & Tennessee

Do you have plans for Cleveland or Columbus or Cinnamon Ohio

Anne Carrelli | Sep 1, 2019
JeanHelene Davis | Sep 1, 2019

That would be a question to ask them directly thru phone. I know they are currently expanding to Tennessee. Anyone who would like can donate toward a tiny home. Depending on available labor & materials I think they cost about $20k each

Are there any of these services in the state of California? If so, which county and/or city? Thank you.

Chandra Livingston | Sep 1, 2019
JeanHelene Davis | Sep 1, 2019

You should direct that question to an ombudsman at the V.A. Medical Center. There are many varying programs & services in California. Qualification is also required.

If I were you I would Google veterans community project in Kansas City Missouri and it'll give you the information on housing other than that go to your local VA Hospital and speak to the universal housing carrier and they can help set you up for a HUD/ VASH voucher

I have been blessed with help from the VA, but right now I just need a vehicle. I want to become a grocery delivery shopper/driver. I want help other Vets and really anyone and I lost my ca4 2 years ago. Can you help me? help me?

They help with a variety topics. I'll say this. If they were willing to pay $656.00 too get my car out of the tow lot. Then I would say it be worth a shot to ask.

This is a privately funded non-profit. Contact the Veteran's Community Project at their Headquarters. Call them. Their goal is to have these villages in all major cities in the U.S. it is 100 percent community driven/supported. Well worth the efforts. And no better feeling in the world when you drive away after a day of volunteering !!!!
