SHIELD AND VALOR FOUNDATION

Shield and Valor Foundation is a Minnesota-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting veterans and first responders through meaningful outdoor experiences that foster resilience, connection, and renewed strength. We believe support should begin before someone reaches a crisis.

Through fishing trips, hunting experiences, outdoor recreation, retreats, and peer connection, we create opportunities for those who serve to step away from the demands of their profession, reconnect with others who understand their experiences, and build lasting relationships.

Our mission is rooted in a simple belief: the outdoors has a unique ability to bring people together, encourage honest conversations, and restore perspective. Every donation helps remove financial barriers so veterans and first responders can participate in these experiences at little or no cost.

At Shield and Valor Foundation, we honor service by investing in the people behind the uniform because no one who has dedicated their life to serving others should have to carry that weight alone.
