Story
2022 was a year of tremendous growth for ESMA programs and services and we attribute much of this growth and success to the support from donors such as you!
Here is some of what we have been able to accomplish together:
- Massveteran.com had over 7000 new visitors and 65,000 pieces of content shared.
- More than 50 small group activities were held including: Strength training, hikes, unique challenges and the new Worlds Greatest Coffee Hour
Our Approach- MassVeteran.com
- MassVeteran.com eliminates many of the barriers that cause barriers preventing the accessibility of services, including employment hours, child care needs, geographic location, mobility limitations, and more.
- Peer activity groups held every month where current military and veterans participate in an activity together, establish bonds, and learn from each others experiences.
- Small group activities specifically geared toward a general Veteran audience, post 9/11 Veterans, women-specific, and seniors.
- Provide monthly support to a local food pantry ensuring that seniors and young families have access to food, hygiene items, basic first-aid, clothing and household cleaning supplies.
- Focused on prevention of common hardships through information, education, access to resources and consistent peer support.
