DONOVAN AND BANK FOUNDATION

The Donovan and Bank Foundation is a North Carolina based 501(c)(3) non-profit comprised of four interrelated programs: The JANUS Program, the Special Operations Experience, The Donovan & Bank Society and the Innovative Wellness Program.

We focus on the critical elements of transition: finding a new purpose, decoupling from military identity, and staying connected to a tribe/community. We outsource the mechanics of transition (resumes, mock interviews, salary negotiation etc.) to partners we vet and validate.

We provide access and funding for the most innovative wellness resources available (Stellate Ganglion Block, Ketamine Infusion, MeRT, Ibogaine and others) which are difficult or impossible to access through the Department of Defense medical system or the Veterans Administration.

We are purpose built to help Special Operators focus on prioritizing fulfillment over employment. We are not a job placement organization, though our exclusive process and extensive network often leads to career opportunities and successful employment for those we serve.

We are the only organization whose programs are specifically designed to energize SOF warriors to begin the transition process early. Because our team is all former Special Forces, we have a unique level of credibility and access with our constituents that allows us to reach them in a way others cannot. Though we focus on Army Special Forces (Green Berets), we have developed a culture and reputation to help any and all SOF who find their way to the foundation.

The JANUS Program delivers transition assistance products and services including one-on-one counseling, transition workshops, leadership seminars and wellness innovation education.

The Donovan and Bank Society provides purpose by offering opportunities to give back and gives access to a network of extraordinary people dedicated to supporting Special Operators and their reintegration journey.

The Special Operations Experience (SOE) is The Foundations primary fundraising effort. It gives civilians the chance to experience Special Operations training firsthand and serves as a pathway for them to join the Donovan & Bank Society. It also provides networking and career opportunities for transitioning Special Operators.

The Innovative Wellness Program gives Special Operators education, access and funding for cutting edge treatment for traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post traumatic stress injury (PTSI).
