Winter Wish Project was born out of a COVID-19 pandemic that disproportionately impacted the minority veteran community. Through the incredible generosity of supporters and sponsors, we were able to serve over 100 families with our 2020 Winter Wish Project.

Winter Wish Project is back for 2021 and better than ever! Minority Vets chapters - Atlanta, Pittsburgh, and Seattle - will be hosting local events to meet the community directly and support their needs while the national team supports as many minority veteran families as we can.

That's where we need your help! For every $200 we raise, Minority Vets can support one additional minority veteran family through our Winter Wish Project! The deadline to support is Friday, December 10th so don't wait!

In case you needed more reasons to support, here are just a few of the notes from of our 2020 families:

Thank you for your kindness! This is beyond amazing and humbling what a great surprise! This is going to make my daughter's Christmas so much better and I’m so grateful as she is my whole world :) This year has really been challenging and scary and life is so tough as a single parent and it becomes more challenging as my daughter gets older but I find the strength, sometimes it’s hard to be strong as I have been doing it alone since I was pregnant but when I find kindness like the one you are offering it makes it a little bit better. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I wish you so much happiness and prosperity in the remaining of the year and the time that follows. Happy Holidays from our mini family to yours!

I would like to thank you for helping me & my family during this difficult time. As a single mother raising four children alone it’s been extremely hard. Thank you for your support.

I am forever thankful for you y'all! I am now able to make my kiddos dreams christmas items appear under the tree. I typically work three part time jobs and I'm currently down to one while in school due to this pandemic. I really cannot say thank you enough. Happy Holidays and Sending Blessings and Good Vibes to your family!
