Help Our Heroes Live the Good Life that They Deserve
A mid-sized town in Fairfield County, Connecticut, Fairfield takes pride in being named as the 44th-best place to live in the United States and the best place to live in Connecticut. The honor was given in September 2014 by Money magazine.
It’s a town blessed with beautiful and alluring beaches. Visitors will love strolling along Jennings Beach to watch the sunset.
You can also find a bit of history in Fairfield’s old town center. There you’ll find historic buildings that’ll bring you a blast from the past. Some of those buildings have been there since the 18th century.
Still, just like other places in the United States, the town has its struggles with poverty. Out of its 62,045 residents (based on the 2019 population estimates by the U.S. Census Bureau), 5.2% comprised of persons in poverty. Among these impoverished individuals were veterans, whose population was placed at 1,992 during the time the survey was taken.
The Challenges of Life After Service
For our veterans, their battles don’t end after they’re discharged from the service. Many of them have a hard time transitioning to civilian life. They have trouble finding decent sources of income because of their inability to find suitable jobs. Some of them suffer from disabilities and illnesses, including mental health disorders. Others lose their homes and are forced to beg for alms on the streets because of sheer poverty and failure to find support.
If you care for the struggling veterans in your town, you can reach out to them by donating any vehicle you no longer need to us at Veteran Car Donations through our Fairfield, CT car donations program.
How We’re Helping Needy Veterans
We are in partnership with veteran-focused IRS-determined 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations that are dedicated to helping disadvantaged veterans throughout the country. Our job is to operate various vehicle donation programs to fund our charity partners’ life enrichment programs for our former service members.
