About Us

Who We Are

Recognized as a nonprofit, faith-based organization, our foundation exists to carry forward a legacy of service by providing support to Catholic veterans, active-duty members of the Armed Forces, and their families.

Our Story

Our foundation was born from the belief that those who have served our country should never feel abandoned in times of hardship. Veterans often face unique struggles—disabilities, financial instability, or the challenges of adjusting to civilian life. With this reality in mind, our founders created a charity dedicated to easing these burdens through compassion, fellowship, and faith.

To invest in the future through programs such as the Father Vincent R. Capodanno Junior ROTC Scholarship, inspiring the next generation of servant leaders.
