BLOG: Finding Purpose, Again
What is your purpose? This is a common question many individuals ask themselves. For our military community, there are multiple understandable reasons to join. But what happens when the uniform comes off and you find yourself without a purpose? How do you discover your new passion and goals?
The Semper True North Foundation sent financial support to the wonderful organization, No One Left Behind, to help aid in evacuating Afghan people from Afghanistan.
The mission of True North, to make a positive contribution to the veteran community and inspire our peers to prioritize charitable actions, is more important than ever. The COVID-19 crisis has caused widespread uncertainty and stress, and for our nation's heroes recovering from physical injuries, seeking treatment for PTS, seeking meaningful employment, or simply providing for their families, this pandemic has exacerbated the challenges they already face. Physical distancing and social isolation have increased the need for support, and we remain committed to the partnerships that embody our True North.
As part of our mission, we strive to connect veterans and their families with the support they need. If you, or someone you know, seeks resources to help navigate the challenges of veteran transition, please let us know here.
