They cite the sacrifice and perseverance of veterans in difficult times. They want to remember those who have fallen and help those who lived - especially those wounded in battle. The JT Barnes Helping Veterans Foundation is the perfect answer to this question. John T Barnes gave over a quarter of a million dollars out of his own pocket helping our veterans, because they earned it. John felt extre
me pride and admiration for our men and women in uniform. As a veteran himself, John realized that we should all respect and take pride in the people that fought so valiantly for the freedoms that we enjoy daily. In 2009 there were an estimated 21.9 million veterans in the U.S. Over 5.5 million of these veterans are disabled or unable to work. With the recent conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq, these numbers are climbing every day. Some of our veterans needs are not being met, this is were we come in, with your help we can give these vets the assistance that they not only deserve, but as John would say, they've earned. John T Barnes spirit lives on in the Foundation. We strive to help our veterans with everything from applying for benefits, transportation, food and shelter, to just being there to talk. We are a not for profit organization that is funded by donations for caring patriotic individuals like you.
