Every year, Dixon Center for Military and Veterans Services (the Center) proudly shares our Annual Report, and this year is no exception.

The 2025 Chair’s Annual Report highlights the Center’s growth and impact through partnerships, projects, and community engagement to improve veterans’ well-being. In 2025, the Center remained focused on collaboration, providing ideas, encouraging action, and facilitating advocacy rather than direct services, to achieve systemic change. Through financial growth and our stronger than ever strategic partnership with Fedcap Group, we were able to enhance program effectiveness and resource allocation. Our Chair highlights:

• Significant growth and engagement: The Center partnered with 60 organizations, a 30% increase from 2024, executed 30 operations, 87 projects, and 15 policy proposals, and hosted 30 community events, while expanding media mentions and online engagement. Staff increased by 20%, revenue rose by 39%, and donors grew by 22%.

• Mission and approach: The Center acts as a resource hub, offering ideas, motivating action, facilitating advocacy, and convening stakeholders to integrate military and veteran services into existing programs rather than creating new ones.

• Partnership and financial strategy: As part of Fedcap, 88% of spending supports programming, ensuring efficient resource use and strong governance to maximize impact on veterans and their families. The Center commits to transparency, growth, and stakeholder engagement moving forward.
