Vets on Track Foundation, Inc. We provide household furnishings for veterans and first responders transitioning into permanent housing from homelessness.
(17)

We offer an array of support services that work to inspire hope, healing, and help define purpose in the lives of those we serve. When you hear the term “veteran” most people immediately think of those who have served in the military. While that is true, the word veteran also resonates with those who have served our Nation as law enforcement officers, fire and rescue, as well as EMT professionals.

Often referred to as America’s 911 Force, collectively, these heroes ensure our country is safeguarded both here at home and around the globe. So, it is at this crossroads of national obligation and social welfare that a new understanding of wellness must take root. The Vets on Track Foundation (VoTF) works at the grassroots level to reduce veteran homelessness and suicides by providing holistic care for those transitioning from life on the streets. From transitional housing immediately following homelessness, to full-fledged home furnishings in a permanent home, and continuing mental and social care we inspire our warriors to discover hope, healing, and purpose – we work to ensure every veteran and first responder under our care has the necessary tools to make a successful transition back into their community. Through our Fallen Heroes Program, we provide comfort and support to widows and widowers through our Fallen Heroes Initiative.

New merchandise is available for our Armed Forces Motorsports Race Program. All money raised from this site goes to support our race program.

Our race program offers a platform to educate our neighbors on homelessness as well as su***de prevention. Throughout the race season we provide tickets to veterans, first responders and their families so they can enjoy watching “their team” perform on the track. Additionally, we present opportunities for veterans to join the race team pit crew – even if it is just for the weekend race.

The 2nd Annual Chesterfield County Freedom Festival and Job Resource Fair was a great success this weekend but it would not have been possible without the support of all our sponsors, bands, vendors, participants, and volunteers. We would especially like to send a big shout out to Darin of Big O Bike Shop LLC and his "Thug Biker Family" for conducting the first annual Flag Retirement Ceremony. We are now working on next year's date but rest assured, it will be bigger and better than ever!! Looking forward to seeing everyone there

Turing Houses into Homes

It’s been a couple of weeks since we had our volunteers and other team-mates at the warehouse preparing for a Delivery Mission or a donation pickup. Over the past 3 and a half years, we have furnished nearly 500 homes for veterans, first responders and their families, and today, it seems very strange that we are at a complete stand-still - no donation pickups, and of course no delivery missions.

The effects of COVID-19 are real to our organization. The health concerns surrounding this virus has stopped us dead in our tracks. I know there are volunteers out their that want to get back to making a difference, but quite honestly, we don’t know when that will happen again? Since the virus struck - we have spent one Saturday at the warehouse just moving things around, making dump runs...just trying to bring a little organization into the place. Here lately though, it’s only been the Founder and CEO making runs to the warehouse to open the doors for other organizations like Micah Ministries, who are still making delivery runs on a case by case basis. This is one small way that we can still continue to support our community and those in need.

Today, we are still getting emails and calls for donation pickups (even though our website and page say we can no longer operate at this time). We still receive requests for support from veterans in need - but due to the nature of our work, it becomes very dangerous not only for our volunteers, but for the folks we serve as well.

The one piece that has truly hurt our Foundation is the lack of financial support during this desperate time. Financially, our Foundation is at a point that we may be forced to close the doors simply because be can’t pay the bills. If we are forced to close, then we have go down knowing that we did everything in our power to help those in need - we did make a difference. We have always said - it truly does take a village, and without the support we have received in the past, we could not have furnished those 500+ homes. So to our community partners and supporters - thank you for allowing us to do what we do. Let’s hope and pray that a small miracle can be realized, and we can keep our doors open to continue serving those in need!
