The Kaufman Fund

The Kaufman Fund is a non-profit organization based in Creve Coeur, Missouri. Founded in 1990, the organization was established by Wayne Kaufman in honor of his brother, Ralph Kaufman, both veterans who were dedicated to serving their communities. With a team of five employees, The Kaufman Fund generates an annual revenue of $2.5 million. The core mission of The Kaufman Fund is to assist veterans in need by providing essential support services. They offer a wide range of programs, including mental health, dental, legal, and chiropractic referrals. Additionally, they run initiatives such as Food for Vets, Trees for Vets, Tax Preparation for Vets, Winter Warm-up, and Artist First for Veterans. The Kaufman Fund collaborates with various professionals, including therapists, counselors, dentists, attorneys, and chiropractors, to ensure veterans have access to affordable or free assistance. The Kaufman Fund relies on generous donations from individuals and fundraising events to sustain its programs. The organization hosts an annual golf tournament during the summer and a casino night in the fall to raise funds and support their mission of helping veterans.
