What We Do

Established in 2007, The Independence Fund is dedicated to serving the Warfighter Community. We offer programs and services aimed at fostering the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual independence of our servicemembers, combat Veterans, their Caregivers, families, and Allies who served in combat alongside them. Our initiatives encompass innovative mobility and adaptive technologies, suicide prevention, Caregiver and family support, and advocacy for Veterans with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, government agencies, legislators, and allied partners at federal and state levels.

Interesting Info

  • The Caregiver and Family Program has assisted 2,094 Veteran Caregivers.
  • Through Feeding Independence, we've donated food and supplies to 9,584 Veterans and their families.
