A Call to Serve Those Who Served - Bulletin in Verse on the Shift of End Veteran Debt to Include Civilian Organizations

A distant thunder calls to envelop my attention.

Gazing into the call, I pause.

Pause and gaze, gaze and pause.

From thunder comes silence,

Then—a voice.

“Where were you?” A familiar voice summons me back.

“Just caught up,” I say.

Many who serve hear the call, and gaze deep into the horizon,

Lost in the peace of the moment,

Setting aside traumas best left to the silence.

End Veteran Debt hears their calls.

Today, new crises rekindle distress among veterans who served.

New coalitions are forming, combining their focus to include these traumas within broader associations.

Veterans are no longer alone in their gazes; relief is shifting to include a wider array of communities.

Civilians and veterans are coming together to provide relief.

Watch for developments from End Veteran Debt, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation and charity.
