Growing Veterans received our 501 (c) 3 non-profit status in 2015 and was designated the IRS Tax ID number of 47-2225742. Since late 2012, our project has been empowering military veterans to grow food, communities, and each other; and previous to incorporating as our own organization in October 2014, we were operating under the fiscal sponsorship of another 501 (c) 3 non-profit.
