Navy SEAL Foundation

The members of the SEAL community and their families are incredibly strong. But even our most elite team benefits from a support structure that reduces the various stressors in their lives, and builds their capabilities. Programs under our Strength Pillar provide assistance to active duty service members in the form of respite care, morale-building events, command all-calls, and much more.

NSF has also partnered with world-class institutes and other non-profits, as well as experts in networking, resume building, and mentorship opportunities to assist NSW members and their families when they transition out of the military. We additionally provide emergency funding for veterans in support of any financial hardship. The Navy SEAL Foundation is committed to keeping our warriors, families, and veterans strong.

Life in NSW can take its toll on our warriors and their families, both physically and mentally. When an active-duty SEAL or SWCC is injured or becomes critically ill, programs under our Health Pillar provide financial and logistical support so their focus can be on healing. We also provide assistance when family members become critically ill. In addition, many of our service members and veterans deal with the chronic effects of sustained combat.

NSF provides a specialized program aimed at addressing their unique physical and mental concerns while optimizing their quality of life. We also maintain connections to clinical psychologists skilled in addressing their specific mental health issues and access to cutting-edge treatment modalities. The Navy SEAL Foundation is committed to keeping our warriors, families, and veterans healthy.

Inside the Navy SEAL community, school and development opportunities can be a challenge. This is true for both warriors and families. Programs under our Education Pillar empower active-duty NSW personnel, their spouses and children, as well as our SEAL and SWCC post-9/11 veterans and their children, by awarding scholarships for higher education. We also support quality education options for dependent children in geographically separated duty locations where choices matter to the overall success of the student.

Additionally, NSF provides funding for standardized college entrance exams for qualified transitioning NSW service members. All this support augments funding accessible through Navy programs and provides additional financial resources not otherwise available. The Navy SEAL Foundation is committed to the education of our warriors, families, and veterans.

The SEAL community is built on a proud tradition that goes back to the UDTs of WWII. Our history and heritage are defined by extraordinary achievements and exceptional courage. The deeds of NSW warriors deserve to be remembered and recognized. And for the community itself, we must do all we can to keep them connected through our unique support.

Programs under our Community Pillar empower the continuation of this brotherhood and their families through things like summer camps, veteran events, and legacy preservation. We also provide financial support for national memorials and monuments and other tradition-enriching activities. NSF is committed to preserving the rich history and community of these extraordinary warriors, families, and veterans.

The warriors of the NSW community deserve to be remembered and recognized for their contributions in defense of America’s freedom. We are proud to take an active role in preserving the rich history of these extraordinary men.
