Veterans. They still need you.

Guys,

Just want to give some attention to this. Because well. I got some news I didn't like very much. 

Anyway. A lot of our veterans no matter where they're from are struggling and we should make sure they are okay. Agree or disagree they're people and some need help

I could only find these for US, Dutch and Israeli charities but I'm sure you can do better and donate a few coins for people in Russia, Canada or elsewhere and give a hand those who sacrificed all.

Here are some British Armed Forces charities some of you might be interested in..

 

These are the British Charities that support the veterans of the armed forces:

The Royal British Legion - https://www.britishlegion.org.uk/

The Soldiers' Charity - https://soldierscharity.org/#

Help for Heroes - https://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/

 

This Charity is unique to the other ones as this charity is dedicated to supporting children & young people who have lost a parent whilst serving in the British Armed Forces.

I personally have donated on all 4 of those charities and attended some of their charitable events. I've seen that even the smallest of the donations really do have an effect on helping out the veterans and children.

Never heard of  ((Israeli)) charities before. are trolling us Jersans ?

You may not agree my Brother. But yes. There are many Israeli soldiers. Many of them are also Muslim (like Bedoine, Druze etc) like you as well and yes many also fight against the greater evil and try to do the right thing. A guy I used to know (an Arab Jew) was blown up while (trying to) providing help and aid as a medic to people who were simply caught in the middle of a fireline. Because it was his duty as a doctor and soldier. Unfortunately he died and so did his patients. Never stopped him from  trying to be being a good person. And yes this was in northern Israel. You may not agree with everything or the politics but many are good people. IDF is well known for supporting Muslims against Daesh and Al Qaida.  

They too are good people.

Not gonna speak politics but its fine to pay ur attention to somethings:

you don't know or you are not right that daech are wrong. because ur IDF did worst than almost every Evil on this earth. don't forgt and don't cry like a crocodile.

daech or nosra are wrong in ur eyes and judgement. but you may be dead wrong.  ... who knows. you see the world by ur eyes and we see it diffrent way. we think we are right ( we are sure) and you think the same (and you know you are not).

but what i'm sure of is: Charities have many ways. one of those ways. keep ur hand of what is not urs and u r not forced to give then. no need to djudge me Jersans i maybe play with you this game but me and you will never be on the same wave ;)  i don't do buiseness whe it comes to my manners or religion.

eehhhhhhhhh lets put this back on topic seeing how no one actually knows anything unless they have personally been on the ground there.

I'm not huge on the Wounded warrior project as they tend to spend a shit load more on things other then veterans. I'm not saying they don't help veterans, just that they don't spend as much as I would hope for someone that takes in the amount of money they do.

People, Veterans included, tend to forget the America Legion, and its pretty easy to do as some can be hit or miss, but they have always been there to help me or any one I've know. When I got out, I went to the Legion just to talk really, but they ended up setting me up with all the paper work I would ever need to make claims to the VA for service related injuries, and they helped me fill it all out.... for free mind you. So the Legion has personally earned my donations just because I've actually seen them help people out going through tough times. However, in the same light, I would never donate to the Legion up in flagstaff, as they usually don't do shit outside of getting plastered at the hall (Granted, this was several years ago, it may have changed, who knows).

I just recommend looking into a service before you put your money into it, the Legion included(each post operates independent and differently from each other), as some may not be up to the standard when it comes to actually helping veterans.
