Donate Today & Save a Veteran’s Life
80% OF VETERANS FEEL SIGNIFICANT IMPROVEMENT AFTER JUST ONE PROGRAM.
Donate Now
Your gift helps veterans heal starting today. Join us to help prevent veteran suicide and reduce the suffering of Veterans and their families. The number one way you can help directly improve the life of a veteran is with a donation to Heroic Hearts Project. Even the smallest financial contribution can make a big difference for a suffering veteran.
Your support helps fund scholarships that cover what veterans can’t, so they can participate in a psychedelic program as part of their recovery from PTSD without putting themselves in financial jeopardy. As a nonprofit, our mission relies on the reciprocity of our community. We operate on a sliding scale, and we ask that all participants financially contribute what they can to support themselves, our operations, and future veterans in need.
Become a Recurring Donor
Support doesn’t stop after a veteran completes a retreat. We provide ongoing support, integration, and family resources before and after Veteran Retreats. Help support a veteran’s journey by selecting either “Monthly” or “Annually” at the top of our donation form.
TESTIMONIALS
FROM VETERAN PARTICIPANTS
“Many of us would never pursue this kind of healing without scholarship funding — pride, finances, or uncertainty would keep us from taking the step. Your generosity removes that barrier. It says: you matter, your healing matters.”
Tim S.
U.S. Army Special Forces (Retired)
Since the retreat, my relationship with myself has shifted. I am less reactive. More present. I notice when old patterns of isolation or emotional suppression show up. Instead of judging myself, I have tools to respond with curiosity. That change has rippled into my marriage, my parenting, my leadership, and even how I approach my health.

Retreat Participant, US Army Special Forces
“I owe my life to Heroic Hearts. I could not have afforded this treatment on my own, and I owe my gratitude to donors like you. Without you and Heroic Hearts, I would not be here.”
Lynn Krug
U.S. Army, 6 years
“Heroic Hearts changed my life. I got sober after the retreat, found self-worth, and a new lease on life — because now I know I’m here for a reason. I will forever be grateful for the kind donors who helped me.”
Lindsay
U.S. Army, 14 years, Intelligence Analyst
“Because of donors like you, veterans who might otherwise struggle in silence are able to step into spaces where they can reconnect with themselves, with community, and with hope about the future. That is not a small thing. It can change the course of a life.”
Travis J.
1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment
“For over 15 years, I committed to talk therapy and SSRIs. While those efforts were well-intentioned, they often felt like temporary bandages placed over wounds that needed deeper healing. HHP gave me something I had nearly given up on: a real chance at healing — and today I am living with purpose instead of shame.”
Christopher
U.S. Army, 20+ years, 8 combat deployments (SOF)
“Programs like HHP do more than provide treatment — they restore families, rebuild futures, and save lives. Many veterans are still searching for the kind of healing I was blessed to receive. Your donation makes that possible.”
Christopher
U.S. Army, 20+ years, 8 combat deployments (SOF)
“Because of you, veterans like me can breathe life back into ourselves and be present for our families. Never wonder whether you made a difference — I’m living proof that you absolutely did.”

Our Goals
1
Directly help as many veterans as we can:
• By scaling to add more retreats and reduce our current waitlist of over 2,800 eligible veterans, while maintaining the quality of the experience for each individual veteran.
• By growing our network of legal domestic retreat programs, creating more opportunities for veterans to receive high-quality care in the United States.
2
Create a strong foundation of community for veterans:
• By creating a digital platform for veterans on our waitlist and in our alumni program that provides resources, curates events and workshops, and creates opportunities to connect with other veterans.
• By rebuilding communities that have been impacted since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and investing in local, on-the-ground ecosystems that foster connection and support.
• By creating infrastructure that helps veterans build the skills to support other veterans through coaching programs, leadership training, and other opportunities.
3
Help more veterans legally access psychedelics in the U.S.
• By advocating for state and federal policy changes that expand legal access to psychedelics closer to home, so veterans don’t have to travel overseas for potentially life-changing care.
• By advancing research and continuing to use our psychedelic studies to demonstrate how holistic programs can create meaningful change for veterans living with PTSD.
