Voice of the Veteran is Officially Closing its operation as of March 31, 2026.  The Veteran management Team of Bob Maxwell and Dan Kamanao are moving to Veterans World CDC, still a non-profit since 2023 and will take over Management of this growing Veterans Organization.  We have done too much and worked too hard not have the funding necessary to move forward and help Veterans and their families the way we should, want to, and need to.  In the interim, there are plenty of Very Good Veterans Organizations in Nevada that can keep the ball rolling and in our transition we will support their efforts.  We are saddened and sorry this has happened, but we too are only human. To quote Tony Robbins “There is no such thing as Failure, Only Results”.  Bob and Dan have a tagline they work and live by and that is “Results Don’t Lie”.  We are moving on with experience, lessons and results and those lessons & results will come to life with new and stronger Veterans Organization version at our New Home called Veterans World Community Development Corporation (CDC), so stay tuned!  We do this for you, our Nation’s Heroes and your families!  We have not and will not quit and NOTHING can stop us.  We will always be here for you!

 

 

Message to Our Fellow Veterans

We are currently experiencing an unprecedented volume of VA Disability Claim requests. While this may cause delays, please know that no Veteran is being ignored. Our team is working tirelessly to ensure every claim receives the attention it deserves.  Just as the VA is backlogged with claims, we are too, but this too shall be resolved as soon as humanly possible.

Your patience means more than you know, and we are honored to serve you.

Voice of the Veteran. “Giving Veterans a Voice”

Mission Statement

“The former Voice of the Veteran was dedicated to transforming the lives of Veterans and their families by amplifying their voices, providing essential support, and fostering understanding between civilian and military communities. We did strive to deliver the highest quality of service with integrity, honesty, compassion, and a never quit attitude. Our mission was to ensure that every Veteran and their families received the recognition, resources, and respect they deserved, honoring their sacrifices, empowering them to lead fulfilling lives.”

 

Who was Voice of the Veteran

The Voice of the Veteran stood as a symbol of advocacy, support, and empowerment for those who have served their country with valor. As a non-profit organization, it is unwavering in its mission to amplify the voices of Veterans, providing them with an essential platform to share their unique stories and experiences and grown from its forward forging programs. Founded on the principle of fostering a deeper understanding and connection between the civilian and military worlds, Voice of the Veteran is more than an organization; it is a movement towards inclusivity and mutual respect.

At the heart of its endeavors, Voice of the Veteran offers a comprehensive suite of services aimed at addressing the multifaceted needs of Veterans and their families. From resources that offer a 24/7 support line, mental health, to job training, placement services, and financial assistance, the organization was a pillar of support for those transitioning from military to civilian life. It stood as a testament to the power of community and the strength found in shared experiences.

By giving Veterans the opportunity to narrate their journeys, Voice of the Veteran not only aided in their healing process but also educated and enlightened the broader society about the sacrifices and challenges faced by those who have served. This initiative was pivotal in bridging societal gaps and fostering a culture of empathy, awareness, and support for Veterans.

Moreover, Voice of the Veteran was at the forefront of advocating for Veteran rights and issues. Through active participation in events as Co-Founders of the largest Veterans and Military “Day of Gratitude” event in the history of Nevada, strategic partnerships, and leveraging social media platforms, it champions the causes of Veterans, ensuring their voices resonated in the halls of policy and change.

Beyond advocacy, the organization was deeply committed to the empowerment of Veterans, encouraging their active involvement in community service and entrepreneurship. By offering resources and support for Veterans aspiring to make a meaningful impact through business or non-profit ventures, Voice of the Veteran cultivated a spirit of self-reliance and contribution. Combine this with the former Voice of the Veteran programs and you had a winning combination that enhanced the lives of Veterans and their families.

In essence, Voice of the Veteran was a dynamic force for change, dedicated to the well-being and advancement of Veterans and their families. Its comprehensive approach to support, advocacy, and empowerment not only uplifted the Veteran community but also contributed to building a more inclusive and understanding society. Voice of the Veteran remained steadfast in its commitment to ensuring the Voices of Veterans are not only heard but heeded, paving the way for a brighter, more inclusive future for all who have served.  But, sadly, all good things come to an end.  It is now time for a new chapter in a better story.  Stay tuned, you will see Bob and Dan soon, but with a new banner… Veterans World Community Development Corporation (CDC).  This Veterans Organization is a 501c3 Veterans Organization that will bring you media beyond our wildest expectations with a magazine that has over 1.1 Million digital subscribers in 32 countries and now a new digital Radio Network that already has nearly 1200 media locations covering our content.

In the Veteran and Military communities, three names stand out for their unwavering commitment and action-driven results: Peter Palivos, Chairman of Voice of the Veteran, Bob Maxwell, Founder and CEO of Voice of the Veteran, and Dan Kamanao, President of Voice of the Veteran. Their vision and heartfelt dedication to supporting Veterans, Military personnel, and their families culminated in an extraordinary event that many believed was impossible.
