The Union of American Veterans (UOAVETTM) attempts to combine the best features of several national entities, i.e., Unions, Philanthropic Foundations, and Corporations with the goal of creating a tool that will have the capacity and capability to serve all US Veterans on an ongoing basis well into the next century. The worlds greatest foundations were created from charity, but founded on capitalism and entrepreneurship. Capitalism and Entrepreneurship (when enabled and under-girded by freedom) are the two power elements that form the engines, that drive invention, progress, growth, and by extension, charity around the globe. With the embrace of these elements and the inclusion of Veteran honor, fidelity, vigor, loyalty, and integrity, the Union of American Veterans was founded and the concept of VeteranshipTM , a close companion of Citizenship, was born.
The Union of American Veterans, is based in Novato, CA, and though its in its first phase, founded in 2012, it is a uniquely structured to perform the role of developing the only for profit US Veterans Foundation, a corporation, with a one of a kind purpose, managed by, of, and for Veterans. Unlike other for profit companies that optionally choose to donate portion of profits or resources to a Veteran cause, The Union of American Veterans has this as its primary mission and written into its founding documents. This unique, first of its kind Social Purpose California, (SPC) based corporation is managed by the VeteranshipTM philosophy, which include open discussion, votes, internal corporate governance, and oversight by its veteran members. VeteranshipTM provides the nexus for massive direct veteran social and economic benefits derived from, and included in the opportunities of normal commerce, consumerism, capitalism, not charity. The Union of American Veterans is housed within the concept of VeteranshipTM and is driven by the Veteran focused enterprises, capitalism, and Veterans issues, and provides the economic stability and sustained growth that is needed to serve the ever increasing economic and social needs of all US Veterans.
VeteranshipTM is the way forward of all Veterans who served and continue to serve honorably as members of Freedoms Labor UnionTM.
