Americans, working together, have the power to build this for our Veterans.
Today, we reach out to you with an urgent appeal that carries the weight of lives at stake and the hope for a brighter future for our American heroes.
We are in the midst of an alarming crisis that demands our immediate attention and collective action. Every day, an average of 20 Veterans tragically lose their lives, by means of suicide, to the silent struggles that follow their service to our country. Meanwhile, numerous other Veterans endure their silent battles, feeling neglected and detached from society.
The stark reality is that these heroes desperately need our support to overcome the harrowing effects of PTSD and/or substance use disorder. Toward this cause, the Foundation has a groundbreaking solution within reach, but we cannot achieve it without your generous financial contribution.
Our Foundation is on a mission to establish an innovative Veterans’ Wellness and Recovery Retreat in Tionesta, PA. This sanctuary will be a beacon of hope for those who have sacrificed so much for our freedom. The Lighthouse property is the key to unlocking this vision, and we need your support to acquire it.
Phase 1 ~ Securing the Purchase of the Island
The total funding required for Phase 1 of our Capital Campaign is $1,750,000. We understand the gravity of this request, but the stakes are high. Without your financial assistance, this project cannot proceed, leaving many Veterans without the lifeline they so desperately need. Ninety-nine percent (99%) of all Phase 1 contributions go toward the purchase of the Island Property.
Once operational, our wellness and recovery program will not only save lives but will also be fully self-sustainable. With the potential to generate between $10,000,000 to $18,000,000 in annually revenue from insurance reimbursements, Veterans Assistance Programs, and other federal/state programs, your investment will have a lasting impact on the lives of those who have sacrificed for our nation.
Our fundraising efforts are rooted in a grassroots strategy, providing all American patriots the chance to express their gratitude for the freedoms we enjoy. By supporting our cause, you honor family members and friends who have served in the military, some of whom have made the ultimate sacrifice.
Notably, once the property is secured, the Foundation will immediately begin offering supportive services to Veterans utilizing the current infrastructure that exist on the Island. Additionally, the Foundation will work with other Veteran organizations throughout the area to host events on the property that benefit our heroes, creating a sense of community and camaraderie that is crucial to their healing journey.
What Your Donation Means ~ No Donation Is Too Small or Too Big
Your contribution is not just a financial investment; it is an investment in the well-being of those who have dedicated their lives to protecting our freedom as well as their families. Together, we can make a difference and create a haven for our veterans, providing them with the support and care they deserve.
Please note that we have a short window of time to complete the purchase of the property, so we encourage you to not hesitate in joining us in this noble cause. Your generosity will make a lasting impact on the lives of those who have sacrificed so much for our nation. Cost of Freedom Foundation Inc is officially recognized by the IRS as a 501 (c)(3) public charity and all donations are tax deductible.
The Foundation’s Board is also open to providing a “naming opportunity” associated with the retreat. For any party interested in making a substantial donation, the Board would be happy to discuss naming the retreat after you, your family, your business, your organization, or someone you wish to memorialize.
Picture the legacy of compassion and support associated with “The (Your Name) Veterans’ Wellness and Recovery Retreat.” Now imagine a stunning, custom made archway welcoming visitors, dignitaries, and visitors to the Island property, proudly showcasing the retreat’s name dedicated to a cherished individual, your family, business, or organization. This dedication honors the sacrifices made by those who have contributed significantly to the precious freedoms we hold dear, both in the past and present.
