HOME FRONT MILITARY NETWORK NEWSLETTER
HFMN is extremely grateful for the inspiring team of staff, volunteers, committee/Board members and sponsors who made this past year a success. This would not be possible without each and every one of you! Home Front Military Network exists to give back to the individuals who have given everything for our country. Everyone on our team is dedicated to providing financial assistance, navigation, education, outreach, and information to our nation’s heroes. We understand how hard it can be to ask for help, which is why when you call Home Front Military Network, you will always be treated with the utmost dignity and respect. We look forward to the opportunities and challenges that await HFMN in 2023 and we are thankful to have you by our side!

We do not anticipate the calls for assistance slowing down in 2023, and we need your help to continue to provide resources for our service members, veterans, and their families. If you are interested in donating to Home Front Military Network and supporting our mission in the new year, follow the link below, and if you need help, give us a call today at 719-577-7417. 
VETERAN SPOTLIGHT
David, a U.S. Army Veteran, faced serious medical complications that put him in the hospital six times in only two months. His wife Amanda was struggling to keep up with going to the hospital, driving from Colorado Springs to Denver for work, and taking care of their son. With David out of work, the two got behind on rent payments and turned to Home Front Military Network for help. HFMN was able to provide rent assistance and get David connected with the VSO to get a claim for disability benefits. While challenges still lie ahead, David said "If [HFMN] wouldn’t have helped us, I don’t know where we would be. Thank you."
