Providing critically needed support to disabled and at-risk veterans
About us
The Disabled Veterans National Foundation exists to provide critically needed support to disabled and at-risk veterans who leave the military wounded—physically or psychologically—after defending our safety and our freedom. We achieve this mission by: - Offering direct financial support to veteran organizations that address the unique needs of veterans, and whose missions align with that of DVNF. - Providing supplemental assistance to homeless and low-income veterans through the Health & Comfort program and various empowerment resources. - Providing an online resource database that allows veterans to navigate the complex process of seeking benefits that they are entitled to as a result of their military service, as well as additional resources they need. - Serving as a thought leader on critical policy issues within the veteran community, and educating the public accordingly.

We’d like to proudly shine a spotlight on the National Sports Center for the Disabled (NSCD), a recent recipient of a $20,000 grant given by DVNF through our Capacity Building Grant (CBG). NSCD's Military Appreciation Programs offer year-round adaptive sports activities like archery, paddling, and mountain biking. These programs are specially designed to empower veterans with disabilities, helping them uncover new strengths and possibilities. Our goal is to inspire veterans to rethink their abilities and embrace new challenges," says Julie Taulman, President & CEO of NSCD. These programs, provided at no cost to participants, play a crucial role in supporting veterans' mental and physical rehabilitation. DVNF is committed to empowering veterans by supporting transformative programs like those offered by NSCD, ensuring veterans have the resources and experiences they need to thrive.

We are proud to share the success of our recent Grab N’ Go event in Philadelphia, where we provided essential supplies to over 320 disabled and at-risk veterans. In collaboration with the Veterans Affairs office, we distributed comfort kits containing hygiene products, food, clothing, grocery cards, and other necessities. Veterans also accessed healthcare information and support services. We’re so grateful to be able to keep serving those who have served our nation!
