This program helps address various f inancial issues, such as rent, mortgage payments, overdue utilities, groceries, baby items, repairs to their homes, and more.

The suicide rate among veterans is alarmingly high, with 22 veterans dying by suicide every day in the United States - That is why VETCares established the Stop Drop & Push Campaign Grant (SDPG). equine therapy such as yoga, art therapy, horse, f ishing, surf ing, diving, outdoor, and music therapies are proven to be incredibly effective in providing veterans with the tools they need to cope with the challenges of post-military life.

CampCares Healing Grant Outdoor Immersive Experience

2025 Fundraising Goal - $25,000

2025 Fundraising Goal - $150,000

VETCares’ Trauma Thriver (TTG) Grant offers support to victims of MST and domestic violence. The grants can help provide necessary resources to ensure that victims of trauma are able to access the support they need to heal and recover.

CampCares is designed to provide outdoor healing retreats including hunting, f ishing, back- country hiking, conservation, equine therapy, and meditation programs that are immersed in nature’s solitude to heal the soul.

Two TTG categories:

CampCares organizes local guides to take veterans out for one to several days of therapeutic activities. Participants then meet back at basecamp for dinner and professionally led peer therapy.

Military Sexual Trauma (MST) is a serious issue that affects many service members and veterans; it is important that we do all we can to provide support and assistance to those who have experienced it.

According to studies domestic violence within the military and veteran communities is high and that is why our grants help individuals access services such as counseling and legal assistance, to help them reclaim their lives to become victorious.

Announcement: We have completed three (3) “Warrior Within” Men’s Immersive Experience and one (1) “SHE Matters” Immersive Experience. Both were 5-day flyfishing camps in Paradise Valley, Montana in 2022, 2023 & 2024.
