Supporting Our Troops
We proudly support our military by sending a variety of care packages to those deployed. We know first-hand how important care packages and words of encouragement can be and partner with our customers to bring letters to as many deployed troops as possible.
United States Veteran Business Alliance
VETS not only supports our troops that are deployed but also continues to provide mentorship throughout their transition into the civilian world. We are proud members of veteran groups and actively host and participate in events across the state of California. The U.S. Veteran Business Alliance started in Sacramento, CA with hopes of strengthening the disabled veteran business community and providing resources to veterans that dreamed of one day owning and running a successful business.
The alliance is a vibrant organization that empowers, provides resources to, and works side-by-side to promote and support veterans in establishing, maintaining and growing viable business enterprises.
The alliance has helped thousands achieve financial rehabilitation through entrepreneurship. We recognize that our veteran’s experience in the military prepares them to be intelligent, capable entrepreneurs. We help disabled veterans achieve the satisfaction, pride and independence that comes from running their own business.
Veterans come home with the values of discipline, hard work and leadership. They’ve worked in the most challenging circumstances imaginable and know they can accomplish anything with the right team.
We are a committed part of a veteran’s team as they build a new life through entrepreneurship.

Jesse Iwuji
VETS had the privilege of supporting Jesse Iwuji on Veterans Day weekend. We were so proud to see our logo on the hood of his NASCAR truck while he raced around ISM in Phoenix, Arizona.
In all things Jesse Iwuji does, there are two constant elements: his love of country and his fighting spirit. This talented driver went from a D1A college football player to a lieutenant in the United States Navy and is now well on his way to NASCAR stardom. It has been key for Iwuji, who is currently serving in the Navy Reserves, to honor his country while pursuing and attaining excellence. It should come as no surprise that he has championed companies and charities that give back to our men and women in uniform.
Jesse is also a big supporter of NASCAR diversity. He was recently honored by NASCAR for the second year in a row – the Diverse Driver of the Year Award. He is a champion both on and off the track! NASCAR has never seen a driver like Jesse Iwuji before. While streaking toward the top tiers of NASCAR, the unstoppable Jesse Iwuji is taking us all along for one wild and exciting ride.

CLEVER Talks
VETS is continuously finding ways to help veterans transition from the military into fulfilling careers. Our founder and CEO, Ian Wagemann, had the privilege of joining other veteran entrepreneurs in San Diego to share their struggles as well as success. VETS values are clearly exemplified when it comes to giving others a hand up in the veteran business world. Ian provided helpful tips that veterans can convert their passion into a paycheck. Clever Talks also provided a platform for veterans to ask questions and receive feedback.
Clever Talks’ mission is to improve the lives of active-duty military and veterans through ideas. Founded in March 2014, Clever Talks has gained momentum throughout communities across America.
