04-Sep-2020: We Are One Inc. is a charitable organization founded by retired Marine Corps office Duane Thompsons to support the members of the Armed Forces and their families. The organization was established to fill in the gap left by national assistance groups and communities for service members with acts of kindness and charitable contributions.
The organization’s motto is to give back to those who give it all by ensuring the wellbeing of their brothers in arms and their families that make tremendous sacrifices, often at a great personal cost.
Statistics show that more than one-third of enlisted military members are unable to pay their bills on time, and half of them require a second job to supplement their income. Additionally, more than 84 percent of enlisted members have to put life decisions like buying a house, starting a family, and going back to school on hold because of personal finances. We Are One Inc. is stepping in with their emergency military assistance programs designed to help soldiers and their families in Southern California overcome great financial stress.
The organization seeks to help service members overcome a range of day-to-day challenges that include having unpaid debt, failure to meet the cost of emergency care, struggling to live from paycheck to paycheck, facing financial barriers in the pursuit of higher education, and facing financial stress that gives rise to other mental health problems.
A senior representative of the organization said, “Trying to adjust to deployment and post-deployment isn’t just hard for the soldiers but also military families. Adapting to new roles means facing the stress of separation and unexpected financial costs. Although service members and their families are a resilient bunch, our organization wants to create a platform where the community can come together to assist and support veteran and military families for the greater good.”
From assisting with basic needs such as food, clothing, and housing to ensuring the service member’s personal development and growth, We Are One Inc. is taking actionable measures to convey their eternal appreciation for the sacrifices made by service members and military families.
The organization also provides care packages to the deployed service members to boost their morale in the face of adversity and separation from loved ones. These packages include essential items such as bath products, clothing, and games.
