Operation Hire A Vet

"Busy hands make for a busy mind"

Ranchin’ Vets is a non-profit organization designed to benefit veterans who served post 9/11. Ranchin’ Vets partners with ranches and farms nationwide to create agricultural employment opportunities for veterans to aid in their transition from military to civilian life.

Ranchin' Vets provides job referral services by facilitating the introduction between veterans registered in our program with agricultural industry employers that we partner with.
In addition, once a veteran is hired by an agricultural employer introduced through Ranchin' Vets, they are then eligible to receive a stipend to assist in housing, transportation and clothing expenses associated with their new job. The stipend commitment is made possible because of grants, generous donations, and our fundraising efforts. |
This stipend is issued
bi-weekly during the first six months of employment with an agricultural employer introduced through Ranchin' Vets. During the stipend payment period, Ranchin' Vets conducts regular follow-ups directly with the veteran to assure their continued stipend eligibility. In addition, Ranchin' Vets offers a Mentorship Program providing informational resources to veterans who have registered in our program. Thank you to our donors, partners and supporters for helping us Serve Those Who Have Served Us! |
Managing livestock is one of America’s oldest traditions, one which embodies the spirit, pride, and perseverance of the American people. The job of an American cowboy is not as glamorous or romantic as our society depicts, yet there is something sacred about this lifestyle. Ranching requires sacrifice, love, faith, and an uncompromising work ethic. Nobody better understands what has been sacrificed for this great land than a veteran, and nobody is better suited to care for her.
Veterans have answered the call to serve us; Ranchin' Vets is here to serve them.

"Ranchin' Vets has been an amazing opportunity through and through. Corey and Kevin are very supportive and truly enjoy helping vets like myself transition back into the civilian world. They introduced me to my employers who gave me the chance to work in the peaceful and theraputic environment on their ranch. They also let me try my hand at product sales, which has helped improve my communication skills. I have nothing but great things to say about these amazing people and highly recommend the Ranchin' Vets program to any vet transitioning back into civilian life." - Ranchin' Veteran
