AMVETS Department of Wisconsin Terminally Veterans Dream Fund (TVDF)

AMVETS Department of Wisconsin Terminally Veterans Dream Fund (TVDF)
(Established in Memory of Jon Van Wageningen)

AMVETS Department of Wisconsin has established a fund for terminally ill Veterans through their hospital and service foundation. The fund is available to any Veteran that is living in Wisconsin and has a limited life expectancy due to a service connected condition. AMVETS would like to enhance quality of life for their fellow Veterans. This will be done through a final wish or goal that the Veteran may have. The AMVETS will work to make it a reality.

The AMVETS accepts referrals from VA Social Workers working with Veterans that reside in Wisconsin. Upon receipt of the application, the AMVETS will work with their committee members and the Veteran to see if they can meet the need. The application will allow the AMVETS to get an idea of the Veteran’s desire and physical needs. In some instances, it may be necessary for a support person to accompany the Veteran to assist with medication administration and ADLs.
