You have made my struggles with losing Cedrick bearable. I have gone to therapy, church groups, bereavement classes and take meds, but nothing has helped as much as OAS.

Veteran Families Left To Go It Alone?
Not On Our Watch!
Your generous donations go to pay or repay each family up to $1,000 for expenses directly linked to funeral costs. As funeral practices are often unkind to our families, loans and credit card debt is incurred before any services are rendered. Many have no life insurance. Our goal is to be there during the funeral process and battle for the familes. Saving them money while lifting the burden of this stressful time is also made possible by your donationss.
Give today – whatever you can – because they have sacrificed enough!

I would like to thank you for all that you do. I am truly thankful for your dedication to knowing the problem and trying to make others aware of the tragedy soldiers & their families endure. It has really, really been a hard road. I wish every day that Cedrick was here and I was the one God called. So sad.
This is a great resource for families that are faced with the hardships that come with veteran soldier suicide.
