Suiting Warriors Operational Fund

Hello GoFundMe!

One of the greatest challenges our Veterans experience when they return home is that of transitioning back to civilian life.  America is losing 22 precious Veterans to suicide, every day, as a result of many issues in this transition.  Poverty and homelessness, caused by unemployment, is a primary factor in these tragedies.

Suiting Warriors combats these issues by providing key areas of service designed to alleviate these issues.
It’s been more than a year since the above video was shot.  In this time, Suiting Warriors (SW) has journeyed over 4,000 miles to suit and empower well over 1,200 men and women from all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces.

In 2014, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to share the Suiting Warriors story, and have an in-depth discussion about our mission and our Mobile Suiting Unit (MSU) with Elvis Duran on the 'Elvis Duran Radio Show'.  Our deepest appreciation to Elvis for his time and for his impromptu donation!
As a grassroots nonprofit, we are in constant need of monetary donations to keep our Foundation operating. Sometimes, this gets really tough and traditional fundraising avenues tighten up.

It is in this regard, that I come to you today, humbly requesting your help.

To keep our doors open and continue our mission of providing our Veterans with the civilian armor, employment connections, and confidence they desperately need to compete in today’s job markets, we MUST meet our fundraising goal of $15K.

Supported by our Rewards Tier below, your donation will be used to fund our Foundation's greatest financial need, the operating demands of SW’s Mobile Suiting Unit (MSU).  Our MSU is the lifeline of our organization and is what enables us to be where our Veterans need us, when our Veterans need us. Budgeted MSU operating demands include gas, maintenance, highway tolls, insurance, administrative fees, dry cleaning, and supplies, just to name a few.
To date, our MSU has enabled us to provide critical Veteran support in DE, PA, MD, NJ, NY, VA and the District of Columbia.  With your help, we will be able to continue to service these areas and expand our footprint to empower veterans in additional states.








Located in beautiful Wilmington, Delaware, Suiting Warriors currently relies upon donated space to warehouse our supply of high quality, new and gently used suits and women's professional attire.  Our donated office space is located in beautiful Center City, Philadelphia, PA. 
In support of our mission to equip and empower our Veterans, Suiting Warriors has develop partnerships with several organizations including; Hiring Our Heroes , Joint Base McGuire-Dix Lakehurst Military Base , Fort Meade TAP- Soldiers for Life , ESGR, Departments of Veteran Affairs , and various American Legion posts.

Thank you for taking the time to consider our organization, our mission, and our Veterans.  We hope you'll join us in making a difference!
