With these funds the WMVC has been able to provide over 60 scholarships to military-connected individuals and their dependents; create the Military Family Assistance Fund to assist military families during a time of hardship, partner with area employers to hire military-connected individuals to name a few ways we assist.
The WMVC is also partnering with Disaiblity Advocates of Kent County, Kent County Veteran Services, and Feonix Mobility Rising for a Transportation Micro Pilot in Kent County. We are looking for 5 VOLUNTEER DRIVERS to assist us in getting this pilot moving forward. We have COVID-19 policies in place to keep both driver and passengers safe. If you are interested in giving back to those that have protected your freedoms and their families go to idriveforfreedom.org or call 833-653-6544. This is a great way to VOLUNTEER and show your appreciation to those that have served.
