As the photos above represent, the main areas of concentration for which the American Freedom Foundation focuses its grants program includes medical care, rehabilitation, reintegration (including veteran employment opportunities), family services, housing, mentoring, addressing issues facing the homeless and child education.
To date, the American Freedom Foundation has contributed approximately $1,000,000 to more than 30 organizations that serve and support our veterans, active duty military and their families.
