Financial health
We do not score finances when yearly spending is very small or the return has too little detail. The ratios stop meaning much at that size.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.

Programs described in its return (2)
- $62,209 spent. Peer Companion Program: During FY25, our seventh year as an independent nonprofit, Vet to Vet ME Peer Companions devoted more than 3610 hours to 138 Veterans who needed a friend. Other Volunteers spent nearly 1,500 hours supporting V2VME caregivers and the organizations mission. Our 5 part-time staff members spent their time (3962 hours) recruiting, training, and assigning volunteer peer companions; processing veterans applying for a peer companion, and resolving problems and issues and making referrals for additional services for the veterans in the program. Other volunteers helped with training, calling veterans (phone pal), and activities to assist the veterans in the program.
- $2,590 spent. Caregiver Support Network: This program is eligible to caregivers of veterans enrolled in the Vet to Vet Maine's Peer Companion Program. This program provides information and support to caregivers of veterans. The Caregivers Support Network introduced caregivers to the Personal Support Specialist program, which enables qualified family caregivers to get a stipend for caring for a disabled veteran. A volunteer coordinates the program and an IT contractor operates the Zoom program at four quarterly meetings. The caregivers hear speakers four times a year on topics of interest; caregivers of Vet to Vet Maine veterans who have died recently meet for monthly gatherings to support one another. The coordinator has been in touch with 14 caregivers and an additional 6 caregivers whose veteran died during FY25.
