Our Mission
The Kansas Veterans Project Inc. provides items to Military Veterans to assist them in their transition from homeless to living in housing provided by the HUD-VASH program. Veterans must be honorably discharged, be enrolled in the VA healthcare system and meet the government’s definition of homeless.
Our Story
Veterans who were homeless and sleeping on a friend’s couch or living in their vehicle are being given a second chance via the HUD-VASH program.
HUD-VASH provides housing to qualified veterans but they cannot provide the household items needed to make a “place” a home.
After meeting with the local Director of VASH and discovering the need, The Kansas Veterans Project Inc. was founded in May 2018 by Jan Denney, a US Marine Corps and Vietnam veteran. Since that humble beginning, Jan was joined by other veterans and people who love them and want to give back in appreciation of their freedoms .
We are not just providing furniture and household items, we are providing a new beginning.
AND,,,, We Deliver not just furniture but hope for a better life. All we ask in return is when the veteran is able, they are to assist another veteran.
