Your time and dedication can make a real difference in the lives of veterans in Central Florida and Brevard County. Whether you help spread awareness, take on a leadership role, or directly support veterans in need, your contribution is valued and impactful. At National Veterans Homeless Support (NVHS), we provide meaningful veteran volunteer opportunities that allow you to make a real difference.

Our mission is to end veteran homelessness and provide struggling veterans with the support they need to rebuild their lives. Volunteers are a critical part of that mission. Your efforts, whether big or small, help ensure that veterans receive food, shelter, employment resources, and a supportive community.

The Impact of Your Support

Every volunteer plays a vital role in helping veterans transition from homelessness to stability. 

Here’s just one success story that shows the power of your support:

Timothy, an Army veteran, and his wife and four children were on the brink of losing their home after he lost work and received a three-day eviction notice. With nowhere else to turn, they reached out to NVHS for help. Our team worked directly with the landlord to stop the eviction, covered some of their past-due rent, and negotiated a manageable payment plan to keep them housed. Without NVHS stepping in, this family would have faced homelessness and uncertainty. Because of community support, they remained in their home, allowing them to rebuild their lives with security and hope.

This success story is a powerful reminder that one call can change a veteran’s future. The volunteers and donors who support NVHS make these transformations possible.
