Our Mission
To empower retired and separated U.S. military members by providing comprehensive support for a seamless transition to civilian life, rooted in our commitment to faith, integrity, and service. We strive to foster personal and professional growth while honoring the sacrifices made by our heroes.
What We Do and Who We Serve
The Heroes To Heroes Foundation serves all retiring and separating veterans, regardless of faith. Our curriculum and research-based program includes goal setting, values exploration, navigating the civilian world, spiritual reconnection, and community reintegration over the course of 12 months. Veterans work together in small teams that become a support group as they go through the program. Bi-monthly online team meetings require written work designed to lay the foundation for future success. The cornerstone program includes a 10-day journey to Israel, the Holy Land, which allows veterans to better reconnect with their faith through Bible (Old Testament) exploration to live a full and satisfactory life.
The final product is a life plan that includes all aspects of life; educational, emotional, physical, spiritual, purpose, and career. Heroes To Heroes gives participants a lifetime of support.
Our program also includes Support that Stays with you
