Celebrating 20 Years of Life-Changing, Lifesaving Support
For 20 years, The Fund has supported the brave men and women who served to protect our Nation’s freedom, helping them live full and independent lives after sustaining life-changing injuries or critical illnesses.
For 20 years, we have grown our programming to provide the unique level of care needed for our Fund family to live each day with renewed hope.
For 20 years, our service members, veterans, and military families have overcome adversity to reach new heights in spite of injuries and illnesses that last a lifetime.
For 20 years, your incredible support has helped our Nation’s heroes achieve their highest possible quality of life and independence…
Today. Tomorrow. Together.
Thank you.
Mission
Semper Fi & America’s Fund cares for our Nation’s critically wounded, ill, and injured service members, veterans, and military families. Supporting all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, we provide one-on-one case management, connection, and lifetime support. Today. Tomorrow. Together.
Vision Statement
Every combat wounded, critically ill, and catastrophically injured U.S. service member and military family will experience the appreciation and respect of our supporters. Our warriors and their families will achieve the highest possible quality of life and independence in a loving, caring, and committed community. They will not be forgotten on their road to recovery.
Our Mission is Critical. Our Duty is Clear.
A+ Rating
One of Only Four Veteran Nonprofits to Receive Their Highest Rating
Our work began when the first wave of wounded Marines and Sailors returned from the Iraq War. A small but determined group of military spouses launched a dynamic effort to help them, which grew into a nationwide nonprofit embracing all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces. Both proven and innovative, The Fund’s unique care model provides a holistic path to physical, mental, and emotional recovery.
