About Code of Vets
A grassroots movement founded by veterans, for veterans.
Our Mission
We are bringing awareness and seeking practical solutions to the daily struggles and issues of our veteran community. Our mission is to take care of our own. One veteran at a time.
Our Founder
Gretchen Smith
Gretchen Smith, an Air Force Veteran, has dedicated herself to taking care of her fellow Veterans. The loss of her father, a Vietnam Veteran, from PTSD opened her eyes to the great needs of our American Heroes. From every $1 donated, .98 cents goes towards meeting needs. All of our financials are transparent because we want everyone to be fully aware that their money is going directly to places of need and is changing lives.
