The Tapped Foundation is making a difference with your help.
Helping Veterans and military families is a crucial way to honor the sacrifice and service of those who have served their country. Veterans and their families often face unique challenges, including physical and mental health issues, financial instability, and difficulty transitioning back to civilian life.
By providing localized support and resources to our Rhode Island Veterans and their military families, The Tapped Foundation, with your support, can help strengthen our communities and ensure that the sacrifices made by these families are recognized and appreciated.
Helping Local Rhode Islanders
The Tapped Foundation was created to bring community service back to local communities in the state of Rhode Island. We will work with veteran’s groups with an emphasis on things such as women and minority veterans, the Providence Clemente Veteran’s Initiative and others, and work with veterans at risk of homelessness in order to help prevent it. We will also work with local families that have unforeseen expenses due to a family member suffering a stroke or heart attack, whether military connected or not.
