Ive been looking online at some Veteran Charities and I found one called "Homes for Our Troops." This charities mission is to build homes and adapt them for soldiers who are severely wounded overseas and are permanently disabled. They are non-profit and the sponsored veterans receive these services for free. It is also listed as one of the best Veteran charities right now. Ive started a fundraiser for the charity. I will backpack overland starting in Dubai on the 9th of Jan. and travel through Oman and Yemen and take a ferry into Africa. Then I will travel overland from Ethiopia down to Tanzania. My end goal is to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro. It will be a couple months of backpacking before I reach my goal, so there is plenty of time for people to donate. All donations go directly to the charity. So dont worry, you wont be donating for beer money. Heres the link to the fundraiser in case anyone is interested in donating.
