Workshops for Warriors (WFW) is dedicated to rebuilding America’s critically challenged manufacturing workforce while empowering veterans, transitioning service members, and military spouses. Each year, more than 200,000 veterans leave active duty, often facing challenges as they transition to civilian life. With many lacking transferable skills, they struggle to find meaningful, stable employment. WFW provides a life-changing solution, equipping veterans with advanced manufacturing skills and nationally recognized credentials, ensuring their success in high-demand industries like welding and machining.
Their mission goes beyond simply providing skills. At WFW, they believe in supporting the whole individual. Many veterans face housing insecurity, mental health challenges, and the absence of a supportive community. WFW addresses these needs by offering comprehensive services that include mental health counseling, food distribution, and housing assistance. They create a supportive environment where veterans can thrive, helping them regain their sense of purpose and security.
As we look to the future, the need for skilled workers in manufacturing is only increasing, with an estimated 800,000 unfilled jobs nationwide. To meet this growing demand, WFW is expanding their facilities, increasing the number of veterans they can serve each year, and investing in state-of-the-art equipment to ensure their students are well-prepared for the modern workforce.
However, this cannot be accomplished without the support of people who care deeply about veterans and America’s future – people like you. By making a planned gift and including WFW in your will, you can make a profound and lasting impact on the lives of veterans and their families for generations to come. Your gift will help WFW continue to provide critical training, support services, and job placement assistance, ensuring that veterans can secure high-paying, stable careers, and a bright future.
