ABOUT OUR STRENGTH PILLAR

The Navy SEAL Foundation stands beside Naval Special Warfare, ensuring its members have the support to thrive during challenges. Whether providing respite childcare, morale-boosting events, or professional development opportunities like networking, resume workshops, and career transition support, we are here to strengthen the community. We also offer emergency financial aid as a critical lifeline to veterans in times of hardship, reinforcing our commitment to those who have sacrificed so much. These programs empower warriors and their families to face life’s obstacles confidently, knowing they are never alone.

Wow. I am so humbled, grateful, and beyond blessed. Through these unprecedented times our family, like many families, has endured an incredible amount of difficulty, stress, and sadness, as if the stress of back-to-back deployments between my husband and I in the last year wasn’t enough. We are so grateful for the Navy SEAL Foundation continuing to support families so that we can continue to support our mission and serve.
