About Final Salute
Final Salute Inc. was founded in 2010 by a woman Veteran and cancer survivor who became aware of the large number of homeless women Veterans in the United States.
She realized a need for an organization that was designed to meet and understand the unique needs of homeless women Veterans and their children.
There are no longer front lines in war, however, female Veterans feel they are put at the end of line when seeking housing and other supportive services.
The Mission
The mission of Final Salute Inc. is to provide homeless women Veterans with safe and suitable housing.
Final Salute Inc. is taking a three-pronged approach to addressing the issues associated with the homelessness of women Veterans: Awareness. Assistance. Aspiration.
Awareness: Bringing attention to the American people that homelessness among women Veterans is on the rise and their support needs are immediate.
Assistance: Providing housing/supportive services to homeless women Veterans and aiding in the prevention of homelessness for at-risk women Veterans.
Aspiration: Instilling in women Veterans that their situations are temporary and their goals are still achievable.
About Cognosante Foundation
Cognosante company founder and CEO Michele Kang launched the Cognosante Foundation in 2012. Michele wanted to support innovative approaches that would help under resourced Veterans and college-aged young adults build meaningful lives and achieve financial independence.
Over the years, Cognosante has participated in numerous fundraising events on behalf of Final Salute, including the recent “Bricks of Hope” campaign. The Cognosante Foundation is committed to helping those who have served and continue to serve and firmly believes that the word “homeless” should never be associated with any Veteran.
