Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation
About The Foundation
Foundation Mission
The Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 1999 to advance the mission and provide a path for financial support of the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.
The Society and Foundation rely solely on private philanthropy – gifts from individuals, corporations, and foundations – and receive no government funding. The Foundation is a 4-Star Rated Charity as rated by Charity Navigator.
The Congressional Medal of Honor Society is the only organization Chartered by Congress to support Recipients. Although the Medal of Honor traces its origins back to 1861, it wasn’t until 1958 that Congress and President Eisenhower chartered a specific organization to address the work and well-being of Recipients.
Today the Society creates a bond between Recipients while keeping their memories alive, protecting the legacy of the Medal, and promoting the values and ideals upon which our country was founded. It remains the only group chartered by Congress to take on such great responsibilities.
Through the Society, Recipients remain as deeply committed to serving our country in peace as they did in war.
NOW MORE THAN EVER, OUR NATION NEEDS HEROES.
Answer the call by supporting the work of Recipients through the Congressional Medal of Honor Society.
You can be a hero by making a financial gift to:
– Uphold American values.
– Inspire the next generation of every day heroes.
– Honor and preserve Recipients’ legacy of sacrifice and courage.
We all need examples of valor and resilience in these challenging times. Who better to provide it than our Medal of Honor Recipients?
Your gift to the Congressional Medal of Honor Foundation today will help shape a better tomorrow.
When you give to the Society, you’re directly supporting Recipients’ efforts to share vital lessons of courage and patriotism with our fellow citizens. Your gift helps make our country a stronger place, something that benefits all of us as well as future generations of Americans.
