Hello everyone, my name is Shawn Thompson from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I’m a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, IT Specialist, husband, and father. I joined VetMentors Housing University to learn more about real estate, build long-term financial stability, and create generational wealth for my family. I hope to gain practical knowledge, connect with other veterans, and contribute by sharing my experience in technology, leadership, and problem-solving.

There is BILLIONS of dollars in this community. https://youtube.com/shorts/sPcH-TE-b0o?is=Mz4ga2uH-yI387ef https://youtube.com/shorts/lLKmO9ZJ7Gg?is=eZfU7FZNtWLpH4_R

☕ Grab your favorite cup of coffee, an notebook and join Founder & Chancellor Yvette Jones-Swanson for our first Meet & Greet! This is your opportunity to meet me, connect with fellow Founding Members, ask questions, and learn what’s ahead for VetMentors Housing University. No long agenda—just community, conversation, learning, and collaboration. 📅 Friday, July 17, 2026 🕙 10:00 AM CST Join us here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82122131973 P.S. This is my first Meet & Greet as Chancellor, so thank you for giving me a little grace. 🙏🏽 I created this University because there’s simply too much valuable knowledge to keep to myself. Together, we’ll learn how to create ethical housing solutions for veterans by leveraging the resources available—not the veterans’ personal finances. Bring one question and be ready to introduce yourself. I’d love to hear where you’re from, what you do, and why you joined VetMentors Housing University. I can’t wait to meet you! ❤️
