We pause to honor the life of our beloved sister and friend, Kathy Wilborn — a cherished childhood companion and a forever part of our family in spirit. Kathy’s light, strength, and friendship touched every heart she encountered, and her presence will continue to guide and inspire us within this mission of service and compassion.
May her memory remain a source of comfort, unity, and love to all who knew her.

About Us
The Untold Stories of Courage: Unsheltered Women Veterans in South Carolina
At PTSD Veterans Village, we don’t view numbers; we see the courageous individuals who served our nation with honor. Each night, countless Veterans find themselves without shelter, a sobering reality that becomes more poignant when we recognize that among them are Women Veterans, often accompanied by their children.
Imagine this:
A world where every woman veteran who once wore the uniform with pride, now finds solace, security, and a path to a better tomorrow. That’s our vision, and it’s powered by the unwavering commitment of individuals like you—compassionate donors and dedicated sponsors who understand that action speaks louder than words.
