A gift that gives twice

During the season of gratitude, many of us reflect on what we’re thankful for and look for meaningful ways to give back. For the thousands of service members, veterans and their families in the Durango area, the need for support has never been greater.

If you’re searching for a meaningful gift this holiday season, especially for someone who already has everything, consider a gift that gives twice: Honor a loved one with a donation that supports Colorado’s military heroes and their families in Southwest Colorado.

Home Front Military Network works year-round to ensure military families don’t fall through the cracks. This year alone, through October, HFMN has assisted 40 veteran households from the Durango area, providing emergency financial assistance, housing support, mental health resources and vital community connections. Behind every request is a story: a veteran striving to stay housed, a family bridging the gap between paychecks or a spouse seeking support after deployment.

HFMN’s reach is strengthened through a network of more than 50 partner agencies statewide, ensuring each donation supports multiple organizations working together on behalf of Colorado’s military community.

Whether you make a one-time gift, set up a monthly donation or honor someone special with a contribution in their name, every act of generosity helps ensure veterans and their families receive the support they need to thrive.

Visit homefrontmilitarynetwork.org/ways-to-give to make a one-time or recurring gift.

Your generosity provides immediate help and lasting hope to those who have given so much for our country.
