Vision

Offering Hope-Saving Lives Veteran suicide is a longstanding, sorrowful issue in America, and, in our experience, loss of hope is the last thing that occurs before some veterans make that tragic decision. VBP is on the frontline, mentoring veterans one-on-one in a trust-based relationship and assisting in their entrepreneurial journey. Hope for their future is always at the core of everything we do. We sincerely believe that the accomplishment of our mission can also help reduce veteran suicide.

Goals

1. 1.Over the next five (5) years, more than 1,000,000 veterans will leave active duty – a number not seen since the end of World War II. We have to do more than just say, “Thanks for your service.” We need to take decisive action to truly welcome our veterans home and help them integrate back into our communities.
2. 2.A great way to do this is by making sure they can secure a future for themselves and their families — by owning their own businesses. With the help of our grassroots movement and motivated people all across America, we are making a difference. Getting Veterans into business!
3. 3.Veteran Business Project is dedicated to solving the problem of veteran unemployment in America by helping entrepreneurial veterans get into business for themselves. The fact that unemployment among Iraq and Afghanistan veterans exceeds the national average is a national disgrace. As a nation, we haven’t done a great job in welcoming our veterans home.
