It Takes Resources to Make Healing Possible
At 4WarVets, our mission to serve combat veterans through outdoor experiences is made possible by the generosity of people like you. It takes more than good intentions—it takes financial support to fund trips, purchase gear, maintain equipment, secure lodging, provide meals, and so much more. With strong financial backing, we’re able to offer all of this completely free of charge to the veterans we serve.
Your donation isn’t just dollars—it’s fuel for healing. It’s the reason a veteran can cast a fishing line without worry, sit by a campfire surrounded by brothers who understand, or step onto a trail and feel peace for the first time in years. Your gift helps restore connection, confidence, and hope.

Honor a Hero or Loved One
Donating in memory or in honor of someone is a meaningful way to celebrate their life, service, or values. Whether you’re recognizing a fallen soldier, honoring a veteran you love, or marking a special occasion, your gift becomes a lasting tribute—one that helps other veterans find healing and hope.
When making your donation, simply include a note with the name of the person you’re honoring. If you’d like us to send an acknowledgment to their family or a loved one, we’re happy to do so—just provide the necessary contact information with your gift.
Every tribute carries a story. Let yours be part of something that changes lives.
Corporate or Large Donations
If you’re a company or organization interested in donating a larger sum or partnering with us in a meaningful way, we would love to connect. Please contact us so we can talk through the possibilities and ensure your gift is put to powerful use.
Tax Information
4WarVets is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, which means your donation is fully tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Upon request, we’re happy to provide donation receipts or verification letters for your records.
Every dollar you give is more than a donation—it’s a lifeline. It’s boots on the ground, gear in hand, and a hand on a veteran’s shoulder saying, “You’re not alone.” Your support helps us honor their service by providing the peace, purpose, and connection they’ve earned. Thank you for standing with us—and with them—as we continue this mission of healing through the outdoors.
