Hello, and thank you for visiting Veterans.org!
VETS.COM and Veterans.org was founded in 1996 by Charles “Sarge” Napier (SFC Ret.) with the mission to serve our nation’s veterans by providing useful information, news, and entertainment.
After almost 15 years of development “Sarge” passed away due to medical complications and the website was, soon after, shut down for nearly a decade.
Now, under the vision and guidance of Iraq war veteran William Carroll and Charles’ daughter Megan, VETS.COM is back on the scene. While staying true to the core vision of Charles Napier, VETS.COM is once again helping veterans and their families with helpful guides, research, and news.
2022 in Review
In 2022, we were able to answer your questions through our “Ask A Specialist” feature while restoring the VETS.COM website as a viable source of information.
2023 Vision
In 2023 we hope to do even more!
Our goals for VETS.COM this year are to create an online tutorial library for using the VA website, provide news and opinion on a regular basis, present veterans with employment opportunities to work with us and get things done, and also initiate fundraising initiatives to help maintain VETS.COM, contribute financially to Veterans.org and the establishment of the Veterans Automotive Service Program (VASP).
While on Veterans.org we are pushing forward to make a comprehensive list of charitable organizations which are looking to help veterans from multiple angles, we are also hoping to establish ourselves as a 501c through our VASP which will be offered exclusively through Veterans.org.
Future Goals: 2024 and Beyond
By 2024 we are aiming to have launched our one-of-a-kind program to help veterans with automotive services through the Veterans Automotive Service Program. Starting small with financial help for those in need but eventually moving to provide automotive services ourselves.
What we aim to provide by Summer of 2024: up to $2000 reimbursement on most vehicle maintenance and repair services. Reimbursement cap will be determined by our ability to raise funds and the veterans need.
Our ultimate objectives are to partner with garages across the country, open our own garages, and employ veterans and others in need who desire to work in the auto industry.
Thanks to your support our original fundraising effort raised $378!
