Support for The Brotherhood Project is thoughtfully allocated to ensure veterans receive consistent, dignified, and high-quality care. 50–60% of all funds are dedicated to meal preparation and delivery, covering fresh ingredients, kitchen supplies, professional meal preparation, and the logistics required to safely deliver meals to veterans. This ensures that every dollar directly supports nourishing meals while preserving dignity and quality.

Roughly 20–25% of funding supports program operations, allowing our programs and gatherings to run smoothly and reliably. These funds cover staff coordination, volunteer training and management, scheduling, and essential program materials—ensuring veterans can count on consistent services and meaningful connection.

10–15% of funds are allocated to community and space development as we work toward establishing welcoming environments where veterans can gather. This includes preparing future communal spaces with necessary furnishings, kitchen equipment, utilities, and maintenance so that, once launched, these spaces are safe, dignified, and supportive.

5–10% of funding supports outreach and awareness, helping us reach veterans in need while engaging volunteers and community partners through communications, events, and partnerships. Finally, no more than 5% of funds are dedicated to administration and oversight, ensuring responsible financial management, compliance, and strong governance—maximizing impact while maintaining transparency and donor trust.
