North Idaho Nonprofit Seeks $7.5 Million Expansion to Boost Veteran Support

Several nonprofits across the U.S. are actively supporting veterans and service members through community-focused services and resources. Newby-ginnings, a North Idaho nonprofit, is raising $7.5 million to purchase a building to expand its veteran services, including furniture, clothes, and a centralized hub to reduce wait times for families. The APWU is advocating against proposed cuts to veterans' rights and benefits under Project 2025, encouraging local unions to designate representatives to protect these benefits. The Navy Marine Corps Relief Society aids over 48,000 service members annually with interest-free loans, grants, and thrift stores selling discounted uniforms and essentials, helping those in financial stress. Project New Hope provides transformative retreats and holistic support services for veterans and their families to promote healing and resilience. Together, these organizations represent a broad commitment to enhancing the well-being and support systems available to veterans and military families nationwide.
