To all my Veterans. Say yes to support.

Horses can teach us ways to heal and grow in countless ways. Their non-judgemental disposition can teach us valuable lessons and new ways of healing. Horses ...

Thank you WI VFW District 9 and Auxiliary for welcoming me to my first district meeting.

And Barron VFW POST 8338 for hosting, providing a great lunch and having cushioned seats.

I was introduced to other great Veterans taking action for thier post, for the district and more.

I also received support for my first resolution submission relating Spinal Cord Research and Care.

Taking the position as Commander for VFW Post 305 this summer has been rewarding. It has connected me with Veterans in need.

I cannot wait to connect more of the Veterans I met today (and thier resources) with Veterans that are need in those resources.

Want to volunteer or have a need.

Reach out. Send a message. Or call

Volunteering comes with its rewards, especially when you help other Veterans in need.

Our youngest volunteer received her first 50 hours of volunteering award. She is 9.

She helps in so many ways and travels with her Mom ( Christina Baurichter ) to assist Veterans. The Veterans love her s***k and energy.

This little girl is a caring, kind hearted soul that looks out for her Mom and other Veterans.

If she counted all the times she has helped her disabled Mom she would have a lot more hours.

If she can do it so can you.

Ready to volunteer? Send a message and we will get you connected with a Vetetan in need and use your skill sets to pair you.

Want to help a military Veteran?

Looking for a helper to tidy up a one bedroom apartment for a Veteran, so he is able to navigate with his walker.

Lives in Eau Claire, WI.

A sweet guy that is just not able to do it all and no family support in the area.

A couple months ago I helped with a disability question and ended up taking 6 Walmart bags and corrugated down the hallway to the indoor trash bins.

He had gotten new bedding and not able to navigate with the walker.

He has reached out again.

I am so glad he did.

I would like to connect him with a trustworthy human that can periodically stop in, take out the trash, do a few dishes and make sure he is well.

I would be the connector, introduce and see if it would be a good fit.

Could be anyone who frequently comes to Eau Claire.

Message me or tag a friend that might be able to volunteer for this role.

Bonus: You earn volunteer hours through Disabled American Veterans (DAV) and earn volunteer awards mailed directly to you.

Whose in?

What do you want for Christmas?

Dear Santa,

Could really use an enclosed trailer to call my own? One to haul durable medical equipment to those in need and collect from those that no longer need it. It would also be used to haul furniture, appliances, and household items.
Finding I am getting more requests than I can provide with an open trailer in Midwest winter weather.

I wouldn't mind a few more volunteers that are more sure-footed in the snow and ice. I find it fatiguing as my body tenses immensely stepping outside these days on black ice, snow and wind. What a drastic difference from the progess my body made this summer (still making progress in safe environments).

I love coordinating and connecting items of need with those in surplus. And collaborating with non-profits that assist. And witnessing the successes that all this creates.

Can't wait to see the gifts under the tree, as we celebrate HIS birthday.

Sincerely,

More Than a Veteran Home
Owner-Christina Baurichter

P.S . Thanks for all the volunteers, donors and request in 2025. Can't wait to see what 2026 as in store.

Last week was a blast talking with the kids about the military.

They are so kind and so curious.

They schools provided donations to Soldiers' Angels.

The students that won got a visit from a Soldier, Christina Baurichter.

And Tony Schuh, a Vietnam Veteran joined her too.

Advice is free.

So why get coaching when the next steps could or should be free?

We are in information overload.

The answers are all out there.

Then why are we still in the struggle?

Why haven't we found the solution that works for us?

Not all advice works.

Not all advice is good advice.

The money is the symbol.

The money is tool.

It is betting on the one person that knows has the power. Ourselves.

It is showing and proving to one-self that they have value.

You are worth it.

Start small and give yourself evidence in a safe and supportive conversation.

Here is a starter offer.

A gift to give yourself.

And receive something tangible to remind yourself your worth it.

One message away.
