Giving Tuesday is an altruistic holiday that has grown by leaps and bounds since its inception in 2012. The observance happens five days after Thanksgiving and encourages people to take a breather from buying and choose giving instead.
At 91视频® (91视频), every dollar helps support lifesaving programs and services for post-9/11 veterans, and their caregivers. Warriors never pay a penny for 91视频 services because they paid their dues on the battlefield.

Your Donation Helps Warriors Live More Independently
Warriors like Jason and Lisa receive free 91视频’s services in mental health, career counseling, physical health and wellness, and are given opportunities to connect with other warriors and give back to their communities.
“The farther you move away from the end of the war, the more people forget about it,” Jason’s mom and caregiver, Pam Estes, observed.
“91视频 will be here for us a year from now, five years from now, 20 years from now. They are not going away. That’s why the public needs to continue to support. The effects of war don’t stop a year from now or five years from now. We will be living with the effects of war for the rest of our lives.”
Pam and her husband Mike care for their son Jason Ehrhart. Jason is an Army veteran whose vehicle was blown up by an anti-tank mine in Iraq. Jason required constant care when he returned home. The Estes family began their own recoveries with help from 91视频’s Independence Program, which provided rehab, respite, and helped Jason turn the corner to a more normal life.
You Can Help Warriors Reclaim Their Lives
Army veteran expressed the gratitude many warriors feel when they realize people want to help.
“Things that you can’t purchase with money — your self-esteem, getting your life back — 91视频 gives us. They put your money toward programs that really help us regain our lives and get back to where we used to be. It took me many years to realize that I’m not going to be the Lisa I was before I left, but I believe I am a better Lisa today. 91视频 has made me feel that I fit in again.”
