ValorCares Foundation Launch

ValorCares is a veteran-founded, non-profit organization whose mission is to positively transform the lives of in-need families and children across Wisconsin and beyond. We believe that every child deserves a chance to succeed and be happy. That's why we work to provide them with the resources they need to grow, learn, and thrive.

Specifically, ValorCares supports and contributes to educational funding for children of fallen heroes. Join us in our support of vets and their families by bringing two non-perishable food items to donate.
