Owners in Honor

Owners in Honor is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering veterans through small business ownership. We believe that the leadership, discipline, and resilience veterans develop during their service make them uniquely suited for entrepreneurship and business leadership. Our mission is to bridge the gap between military service and business success by providing veterans with the education, mentorship, financial resources, and strategic guidance needed to acquire, operate, and grow small businesses.

Our Impact & Programs
Owners in Honor offers a comprehensive support system designed to ensure veterans can successfully transition into business ownership. Our key initiatives include:

Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition (ETA) Education – We provide veterans with specialized training on acquiring existing businesses, navigating financing options, and managing successful operations.
Mentorship & Business Advisory Services – Veterans gain access to business coaches, industry experts, and peer mentorship to guide them through every stage of business ownership.
Financial Assistance & Capital Access – We connect veterans with SBA loans, investment opportunities, and financial planning resources to ensure they have the funding needed for success.
Corporate & Community Partnerships – We collaborate with business brokers, financial institutions, and veteran-support organizations to create a robust network of resources for veteran entrepreneurs.
Small Business Transition Support – We help veterans connect with small business owners looking for successors, ensuring that strong, community-based businesses remain in operation under new veteran leadership.
Why It Matters
Transitioning from military service to civilian life presents unique challenges, and employment alone is not always the best fit for every veteran. Small business ownership provides an opportunity for veterans to lead, innovate, and create economic stability for themselves and their families. Owners in Honor ensures that veterans have the knowledge, financial access, and support system necessary to take control of their future through business ownership.
