THE HEART OF CARDS OF FAITH

OUR MISSION

Honoring veterans. Connecting generations. Sharing faith.

We bring youth and veterans together through handwritten cards, meaningful conversations, faith, and community support.

Our Mission

We honor. We connect.

We walk alongside.

Cards of Faith is a veteran-centered nonprofit dedicated to reminding those who served that they are seen, valued, and never forgotten.

Through cards, conversations, faith, and community resources, we bring encouragement and support that makes a lasting impact.

Veterans make up only about 5% of U.S. adults, yet millions continue to face challenges long after their military service ends.

17.5 veterans die by suicide every day — 6,398 veterans lost their lives to suicide in 2023 alone.

61% of veterans who died by suicide in 2023 had not received VA health care in the year before their death.

Only about half of all veterans used any VA benefit or service in FY2023, meaning millions of veterans were not connected to VA services that year.

Nearly half (48%) of post - 9/11 veterans say adjusting back to civilian life was difficult.

Among veterans who experienced service-related trauma, 53% reported difficulty readjusting to civilian life.

Two-thirds (66%) of veterans who reported post-traumatic stress said their transition back into civilian life was difficult.

32,495 veterans experienced homelessness on a single night in January 2025, including more than 13,500 who were unsheltered.

Lack of social support is recognized by the VA as a risk factor for veteran homelessness, reinforcing why community connection and companionship matter.
