Springs Rescue Mission is committed to serving those who have selflessly served our country. But it’s only possible thanks to the help of so many generous donors, businesses and organizations.

These “Community Champions” are committed to helping military veterans in Colorado Springs to overcome poverty, homelessness and addiction through programs and services at the Mission.

In this blog, we shine a spotlight on two  exceptional organizations—USAA and El Pomar Foundation—whose grant funding is transforming the lives of homeless military veterans in our community.

USAA: Extending the Mission of Service

USAA's commitment to serving those who have served our country extends beyond its core mission.

Through their grant funding, they're instrumental in enabling the Springs Rescue Mission to provide specialized support to homeless veterans.

With their assistance, veterans regain a sense of belonging and access tailored resources that address their unique needs, from housing to mental health services.

El Pomar Foundation: Fostering Change Through Compassion

El Pomar Foundation's support for the Springs Rescue Mission represents their dedication to positive community change.

Their grant funding strengthens the Mission's efforts to provide homeless veterans with pathways to stability.

By supporting SRM’s vocational training, transitional housing, and other targeted programs, El Pomar Foundation empowers veterans to rebuild their lives with dignity.

Real Stories of Redemption: A Glimpse into Impact

The partnership between the Springs Rescue Mission and these Community Champions has already yielded inspiring results.

From a veteran who found stable housing and regained his sense of purpose through El Pomar Foundation's support, to a homeless hero who received mental health services thanks to USAA's backing, these stories underscore the transformative potential of grant funding and dedicated collaboration.

Conclusion: Forging a Brighter Future Together
