Our mission is to assist veterans with the array of issues they may face, including obtaining proper disability compensation, financial assistance, information on the GI bill, and more. We have created some helpful guides and will continuously be adding more. Check out our organization below: Veterans Guide - veteransguide.org/ What's important to us is providing resources and help for veterans and their families. We want to make sure vets have all the resources necessary to ensure they struggle with their health and finances as little as possible.
Piedmont Chapter, MOAA, is a local and national organization supporting veteran issues (primarily benefits). We meet socially and are open to all military officers and NCOs.
