Organizational Overview
The Virginia Veterans Services Foundation is dedicated to strengthening the lives of Virginia’s veterans and their families by investing in the people, programs, and places that enhance their overall quality of life. Through strategic partnerships and targeted support, the Foundation works to ensure that those who have served our country, along with the families who stand beside them, have access to the resources they need to thrive.
Our mission is carried out by supporting critical areas that impact long-term well-being, including behavioral healthcare, housing, transportation, education, and employment. We also invest in transition and veteran care centers, as well as cemeteries, ensuring dignity, continuity of care, and lasting honor for Virginia’s veteran community.
Guided by our core values of health, stability, security, and honor, we are committed to building a stronger, more supportive future for every veteran family across the Commonwealth.
