Veteran Support

How Veteran Support Began. Join us today!
I created Veteran Support back in 2017. I had just moved to Florida from Virginia, and to be honest, finances were tough at the time.
Before the move, I had sold quite a few items on Facebook Marketplace — things I no longer needed — and I realized it was a fairly easy way to make some extra cash. When I got to Florida, I figured I could do the same thing here.
I honestly can’t remember exactly why I created this group, or even why I named it Veteran Support. Looking back, I think the truth is simple: I was a struggling veteran myself, and I probably needed some support.
At first, everything moved very slowly. The group only had about 10 members. There wasn’t much being offered for sale, and I wasn’t making much money at all. To be completely honest, I had almost forgotten about the group.
Then something happened that changed everything.
A fellow veteran reached out to me who was in a very dark place. He shared something with me that shook me to my core — because I had been in that same mental state before. The first thing I asked him was whether he knew about the su***de hotline. He did. But then we just… talked. For a long time.
We realized we had been through many of the same experiences. By the end of that conversation, we were laughing. We stayed in touch for quite a while afterward, and as far as I know, he made it through that tough time.
That moment made me realize something important:
Veteran Support could be more than just buying and selling things.
I had already navigated much of the VA system myself — the claims process, using my GI Bill for school, buying a home through the VA, and receiving my healthcare through the VA. More importantly, I enjoyed helping other veterans. It gave me a sense of purpose and self-worth.
Fast forward to 2026, and Veteran Support now has over 10,000 members and followers between our group and page. As we’ve grown, I’ve noticed something incredible: the quality of items offered has improved, sales come easier, and we’re able to do more — offering rides, bringing food and drinks to homeless veterans, and helping in other meaningful ways.
This is why I continue to push to grow this group.
This is why I keep asking members to invite others.
Not only does growth mean better items and easier sales — it means more veterans can find support when they need it most.
Your membership truly matters. And I promise to keep doing everything I can to make this group better.
I need your help.
Thank you all.
