2.9% Cover the Fee

All donations are tax deductible.

To note: The largest expense to Veteran Overland is the Vet Connect program. For each of our five annual events, we fully sponsor ~five veterans to attend our events that may otherwise not be affordable to them. This entails purchasing, flights, lodging, fuel, food, and oftentimes sleeping bags, tents and other essential items. Additionally, all of our events are free to attend, with the option of providing donations if it's available to the attendee. We want connection to be free to this community.
