Who We Are
Our Organization
Our Organization
1. The El Paso County Colorado Progressive Veterans is an IRS vetted and approved 501(c)4 non-profit organization, focused on the many ways that we can help our Veterans, Active Duty Military and their families. Our website has nearly 100 Veteran support groups listed, with “hot links” to the appropriate websites. These include everything from homeless solutions, FREE trained support dogs, FREE scuba diving lessons and even how to get FREE Colorado license plates. We have also included excellent information for applying for VA Healthcare and Disability Benefits.
2. We give a voice to El Paso County Colorado Veterans, Active Duty Military and their families. To do this effectively, we need to have our voice in Washington DC. For us to be heard, we need numbers ... in other words, lots of members. For any Congressional elected official to answer the phone when we call, we need over 1000 members. Click the "Join Now" button above to learn more about membership and the benefits that membership offers. There are NO dues or meetings. Membership is strictly used for communicating with Congress, their leadership and the VA. Fundraising is a separate activity.
3. We don't stop there. We are a Progressive group of Veterans, Active Duty Military and their families. In order to achieve our key goals stated above, we are also raising money to promote the Democratic Party here in El Paso County, Colorado, to help ensure that Progressives are elected everywhere and these values are promoted. Our goal for 2020 is to help El Paso County, Colorado, turn BLUE. Funds raised will be used for this goal and to grow our organization. Membership does not indicate that you support Progressive candidates…only that you support Veterans and our Military. Donations DO indicate that you wish to support the Democratic Party, Progressive Legislation and through our PAC and Political Committee, Democratic candidates.
