  • Are you a veteran in need of assistance?

Finish the Mission Veteran Relief Fund provides support for a wide variety of needs. We typically collaborate with Kent County Veterans Services to determine the most effective ways to offer help. Finish the Mission Veteran Relief Fund also works closely with other partner organizations that provide information, support, and services to veterans and their families, including West Michigan Veterans Coalition, Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency, and Grand Rapids Vet Center.

Methods to seek support from Finish the Mission Veteran Relief Fund include:

Contact Kent County Veterans Services directly at (616) 632-5722 or accesskent.com to see if they can fulfill your need first. They are one of our primary partners and we often develop a collaborative solution with them.

Contact one of our Collaboration Partners, West Michigan Veterans Coalition, Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency, or Grand Rapids Vet Center. Finish the Mission Veteran Relief Fund may be able to work with one of these partners to provide the help you need. Ask a representative to contact us at support@finishthemissiongr.org.

Contact us directly! If you have questions about our funding options and available support, please contact us to start a conversation at  support@finishthemissiongr.org.

Include in your email:

• What is the best way to contact you?  Indicate email, phone/text, or USPS.

• A short description of need and cost

• Note other organizations, if any, you have contacted regarding help with this specific need. Visit the Kent County Veterans Services events calendar for a glance at existing services and events that may help you.

We’re always looking for more collaborative partners.

We collaborate and partner with local organizations to form a “safety net” approach. We provide additional protection for local veterans from hardship and loss in areas not covered by traditional means. Some of our partners include:

  • Kent County Veterans Treatment Court
  • West Michigan Veterans Coalition
  • Blue Star Mothers of America
  • Mustard Seed Ministries
  • Inner City Christian Federation
  • Grand Rapids Home for Veterans
  • United Veterans Council of Kent County

Some of our collaborations have allowed us to:

  • Assist with car and home repairs, including replacing the roof and repairing the interior plumbing of a local vet’s home
  • Provide family crisis airline travel and lodging
  • Cover the cost of medical procedures and prescriptions
  • Provide utilities, rent, insurance, and other living expenses to bridge financial hardship gaps

In 2021, we have already helped a veteran with mortgage payments stopping foreclosures, funded Boy Scouts events and flags that honor and remember our local veterans, contributed to Art Prize projects and expenses for veterans and Kent Country Veteran Services, and made two deliveries of “wish list” items to the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans.

Are you an organization or business with an idea or event that may help us improve the lives of veterans and their families? 

Let’s talk about a collaboration!

What does FTM mean to you?
“FTM means to leave no veteran in need behind. The decision to seek assistance is not easy to come to. Navigating the community resources to find the right assistance can be even harder. I want to ensure that a veteran in need is connected to the right resources in order to resolve their hardship and improve their quality of life.”
