These partnerships highlight the power of community and the commitment to making a lasting impact. Below, we’ve rounded up some incredible stories that showcase this work.
Equipping Veterans with Career-Ready Skills
The SMART Heroes Foundation is changing lives by providing free training to transitioning service members and veterans, preparing them for careers in the sheet metal industry. This program has already graduated over 500 veterans and thanks to a grant from The PenFed Foundation, continues to empower more veterans with meaningful career opportunities.
Healing and Growth Through Outdoor Experiences
Warriors & Quiet Waters (WQW) offers a transformative program for post-9/11 combat veterans, helping them rediscover purpose and thrive in civilian life. With support from The PenFed Foundation, the “Built for More” program combines outdoor expeditions with personal development, benefiting hundreds of veterans and their families.
