Be Part of the Impact
Whether you join us on the course, support us as a sponsor, or contribute through a donation, you are helping us serve those who serve.
Together, the 5th Annual VFR Foundation Golf Outing will be our best yet.
The VFR stands for Veterans and First Responders - a direct message to those who we serve.
But to all of us in the organization it is so much more. Our name is an expression of our awe in:
-
The Valor of these men and women.
-
The Freedom they fight and sometimes die for.
-
The Respect they embody - and that we proudly send back in their direction.
Our mission is to create a place where these individuals can recover, relax and rejuvenate - this is how the idea for The VFR Homefront Campus was born. This campus will provide first responders - primarily Police, Fire, Military, Veterans - and their families with unique experiences in the natural environment to help them thrive as individuals and as a part of their communities.
The VFR Homefront will offer service families the opportunity to experience best-in-class programming and therapeutic interventions that help families to stay connected, process trauma, and promote healing and well-being. We will maintain a dedicated focus on mental health services and support such as mental health evaluations, therapy, counseling to address depression/ anxiety, PTSD & much more.
