Round Up for Veterans
Your change can change everything for a veteran family.
When you round up your total at Dave's Hot Chicken, those extra cents go directly to veterans and military families facing a financial crisis.
Here's where your round-up goes.
USA Cares provides emergency financial grants. Not loans. We serve post-9/11 veterans, service members, and their families. We pay landlords directly to stop evictions. We pay utility companies to keep the lights on. We pay creditors before a family loses their car or their stability.
Financial instability is one of the primary risk factors contributing to veteran suicide. When a family is held together financially, they have a foundation to rebuild from. That's what your round-up makes possible.
The impact of your gift
Every dollar has a purpose.
Covers urgent essentials like groceries, gas, or a phone bill that help a veteran family stay stable in a moment of crisis.
Keeps food on the table so a veteran family doesn't have to choose between meals and paying another urgent bill.
Helps cover medical costs like prescriptions or co-pays so a veteran doesn't have to delay care during a difficult time.
Prevents a utility shutoff and keeps a veteran family safe with running water, heat, and electricity when it matters most.
Hear from a veteran we've served
Stability is the foundation for everything else.
Sometimes the best way to understand what this work means is to hear it directly. Listen to this 30-second clip from a veteran USA Cares has helped.

About USA Cares
We've been doing this since 2003.
USA Cares is a national 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to providing financial assistance and post-service skills training to post-9/11 veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. Through our Military Assistance Response Program (MARP), we deliver emergency grants paid directly to landlords, utility providers, and creditors — stopping eviction, shutoffs, and repossession before they escalate into a larger crisis.
We believe that stability is the foundation for everything else — and that every veteran family deserves the dignity of a stable home.
