Our Mission

For over 18 years, the North Carolina Heroes Fund (NCHF) has been dedicated to improving the quality of life for North Carolina’s military personnel and their families. Our mission is to provide critical financial support to service members and veterans who face unexpected hardships as a result of their military service.

We step in when families need it most, offering essential relief for urgent expenses like mortgage and rent payments, car and insurance costs, and necessities such as groceries and gas. By bridging these financial gaps, we help veterans, and their families regain stability and peace of mind during challenging times.

The impact is powerful: relief in a crisis, the chance to rebuild resilience, and the reassurance that their sacrifices are recognized and valued. These brave men and women have given so much for our country — and with your support, NCHF is here to give back when they need it most.
