Veteran-serving nonprofit Food & Basic Needs

Downriver for Veterans

Founded in 2017 by an Air Force Veteran; provides emergency essential-needs assistance to Veterans across the Downriver communities. Not certified to file VA benefits claims.

Advocacy for Humanity connects Veterans to Downriver for Veterans, an independent organization, for food & basic needs across Wyandotte / Downriver (21 cities), Wayne County. They do the work; we just help Veterans find them — AFH doesn't run it.

Services

Emergency essential-life-expense assistance for verified Veterans (rent, utilities, car repairs); food, household goods, toiletries, bedding, pet supplies; resource referrals; in-development housing initiative
