Our vision is to help military veterans and their families to heal, transition, grow, and thrive.
To help accomplish this vision, Tee It Up for the Troops has reunited over 400 veterans through our REUNION outreach program and donated over $18,000,000 to partnering veterans support organizations that direct financial support towards these identified critical areas of need:
- Treatment of PTSD and Traumatic Brain Injuries: These invisible wounds of war often go untreated due to shame or misdiagnosis, and they significantly impact veterans and their families. We aim to support veterans coping with these very real issues.
- Suicide Awareness and Prevention: Suicide rates among veterans are significantly higher than those of civilians. We support bringing awareness to this issue and support treatment for struggling veterans.
- Employment: Due to the unique challenges they face when returning home, the unemployment rate for veterans is significantly higher than the national average. We want to promote training and employment opportunities for veterans.
- Sports and Recreation: Getting out and staying active is not only great for veterans struggling with mental illness, it also has rehabilitative benefits. We support programs that provide sports and recreation opportunities that are adaptive for veterans with injuries and have rehabilitative benefits.
- Family and Caregiver Support: Many veterans are blessed with support from family and caregivers along their journey. We support programs that aid family members and caregivers in providing the best possible care for the veteran in their lives.
- Housing: Housing is among the top concerns for veterans. We promote organizations that help to fight homelessness among veterans and provide transitional and comfort housing while receiving treatment.
