Infinite Hero Foundation Grant Program

From Infinite Hero Foundation

Infinite Hero Foundation aims to connect military personnel, veterans, and their families with innovative and effective treatment programs for service-related injuries. This encompasses support across five critical areas: physical rehabilitation, leadership development, brain health, family support, and suicide prevention, with a focus on addressing the real and pressing challenges faced by military personnel and veterans, including physical and mental health issues, leadership skill enhancement, PTSD, brain injury, and the overarching impacts on families.

Type of Support

Overview

The Infinite Hero Foundation Grant Program supports the mission by funding veteran service organizations that offer innovative and effective treatments or programs for service-related mental and physical injuries. Since 2012, the foundation has allocated over $5.1 million to 44 different organizations. Grants of up to $100,000 per cycle, annually, are available based on need and a reviewed budget. The funding is designated for direct program costs, explicitly excluding any fundraising or administrative overhead expenses. This approach positions Infinite Hero Foundation as an investment fund for nonprofits driving forward new treatments and supports for heroes facing service-related challenges.
