It is a quick and easy way to support our programs!
Donate Your Home Improvement Goods
In order to make money to support our veteran training and veteran employment programs, our Go Green Warehouse needs new and used home remodeling and home improvement materials materials to sell. In order to sell materials, we need to stock our shelves, so please consider donating your functional home remodel materials to the Go Green Warehouse!

Remember and Donate
Each year in December, our nation pauses to remember Pearl Harbor Day on December 7. If you would like to give an end-of-year contribution in honor or in memory of a servicemember, Veterans Green Jobs will acknowledge your gift on our website (no dollar amounts will be revealed). If you make your contribution through GivingFirst.org on Colorado Gives Day, Dec. 6, your donation will be partly matched with incentive funds, meaning that your donation will help us even more. Please remember Pearl Harbor and our men and women in arms.
