One of the highest-rated non-profits in New York City, OnBehalf in an all-volunteer organization that aims to raise money and professional services for the wounded veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan. Founded by four USAR combat vets in 2005, OnBehalf provides cash for eligible military families as well as connects injured men and women with professional services, items, or advice generously contributed by small businesses and professionals from around the country.
The process begins on OnBehalf's website, where a wounded vet or military family can be nominated for assistance by anyone. Once their application is approved, OnBehalf will issue a financial grant, and if necessary, consult its Thank a Vet Network on Facebook for individuals and businesses who might be able to volunteer their services. If appropriate, OnBehalf's ScoreForce team will also identify and contact local businesses in a veteran's hometown that might be able to lend a hand.
Over 90 percent of contributions to OnBehalf go directly to veterans.
