This Veterans Day, We Honor Their Sacrifice

 Nearly 1 in 4 members of the U.S. homeless population is a veteran.

Their sacrifice has been great - more than 2/3 of them served three or more years in the military.  Yet today they find themselves sleeping under bridges, in emergency shelters, or on sidewalk grates.  This is truly an American tragedy.

Today, we pay to tribute to all who have served in our military, and we pledge our commitment to fight for a day when no veteran - no one - will be homeless.
