What does TB Vets stand for?
Our name comes from the original veterans with tuberculosis who started our organization in December 1945. The full original name was the Tuberculous & Chest Disabled Veterans Association, more commonly known as TB Veterans Association or simply TB Vets. Our full name today is TB Vets Charitable Foundation. While we have always been a non-profit organization, we became an official registered charity in the 1990s. This name honours the original veterans who started the organization and shows that we can now issue tax receipts for your donations.
