The Pararescue Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization that exists to support the health and wellness of our USAF Pararescuemen and Combat Rescue Officer service members, veterans and their families.
United States Air Force Pararescuemen, also known as “PJs,” and their Combat Rescue Officer leaders are the only US force specifically trained and equipped to execute the most dangerous and technical rescue operations worldwide. Regardless of enemy threat or environmental conditions, these elite warriors stand ready to find isolated and injured people, render expert medical care, and return them safely.
Such selfless service takes a toll on military families. These warriors operate at a convergence of roles known to be high-risk for Post-Traumatic Stress: ground combat, trauma medicine, and the recovery of human remains. Also, the physical burden of carrying patients, rescue equipment, and combat loads through parachute insertions, armed conflict, open ocean swims, glacier travel and mountainous terrain routinely results in chronic physical and neurological damage.
These men are trained and ready to risk their lives in any scenario for other military members or civilians. Giving back to them is our mission and our passion.
We provide tailored resources at no expense to the recipients including:
- Personalized health and wellness support that expedites access to care.
- Psychological programs by leading clinicians familiar with the Pararescue mission.
- Guidance for service members navigating the medical retirement process.
- Access to Special Operations Forces-specific Veterans Administration disability claims preparation.
- Peer support network.
We need your help to continue our mission for PJs past, present and future, because the world needs heroes.... ours are PJs and CROs.
