Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
THIS YEAR THE ORGANIZATION WAS ABLE, DUE TO THE KINDNESS OF AN ESTATE IN THE AREA WHERE THE DECEDENT INCLUDED VETERAN CAUSES IN THEIR LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT, TO PURCHASE THE RESIDENTIAL REAL ESTATE LOCATED AT 1309 GARFIELD AVENUE, CITY OF LYNCHBURG, WHICH WAS LISTED IN SCHEDULE 0 OF 2019 FORM 990 AS A PROJECT FOR HOUSING HOMELESS VETERANS. THIS YEAR THE ORGANIZATION HAD A DEDICATION CEREMONY ON OCTOBER 12, 2020, 75 YEARS TO THE DAY THAT PRESIDENT TRUMAN PRESENTED THE MEDAL OF HONOR TO LYNCHBURG NATIVE DESMOND T. DOSS, WHOSE HEROIC ACTIONS IN WORLD WAR II WERE MADE FAMOUS BY THE HOLLYWOOD MOVIE "HACKSAW RIDGE". WE HAVE INCLUDED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE PORPERTY IN OUR EXPENSES, AND ALSO SHOW THE PROPERTY AS AN ASSET IN THE TOTAL VALUE ASSETS ON HAND. THIS WAS OUR MAJOR PROGRAM THIS YEAR AND BIGGEST EXPENSE. THIS FIGURE INCLUDES UTILITIES, TAXES, INSURANCE, AND MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON THE PROPERTY DURING TAX YEAR 2020. THE FIGURE ALSO INCLUDES RENT PAID BY THE ORGANIZATION UNTIL THE TIME IT WAS PURCHASED IN APRIL 2020.
INCLUDED IN GRANTS REPORTED THIS YEAR IS THE AMOUNT OF 14,215.81, WHICH CONSTITUTES GRANTS TO INDIVIDUAL VETERANS. THESE GRANTS ARE FINANCES PAID ON BEHALF OF A VETERAN IN NEED, BUT PAID DIRECTLY A LANDLORD, UTILITY PROVDER, A BANK HOLDING A CAR LOAN, ETC. THESE GRANTS ARE NOT PAID DIRECTLY TO VETERAN, BUT TO A CREDITOR OF THE VETERAN ONCE THE NEED HAS BEEN VERIFIED BY OUR VOLUNTEERS. THERE REALLY WERE NO DIRECT EXPENSES FOR THIS PROGRAM, OTHER THAN GENERAL OFFICE EXPENSES THAT APPLY TO THE ENTIRE EXEMPT PURPOSE.
THE ORGANIZATION CONTINUES TO UNDERWRITE THE EXPENSE OF MEDICAL TRANSPORT OF WHEEL CHAIR BOUND VETERANS TO THE SALEM VIRGINIA V.A. MEDICAL CENTER. GRANTS FOR THIS PROGRAM FOR 2020 TOTAL 2945.00. AGAIN, THIS IS SHOWN HERIN AS GRANTS RATHER THAN AS EXPENSES. THIS IS OUR THIRD MOST EFFECTIVE PROGRAM IN TERMS OF DOLLARS AND CENTS HOWEVER.
