The Mission of the Gary Sinise Foundation is to serve our nation by honoring our defenders, veterans, first responders, their families, and those in need. We do this by creating and supporting unique programs designed to entertain, educate, inspire, strengthen, and build communities.
The Gary Sinise Foundation was established under the philanthropic direction of a forty-year advocate for our nation's defenders, actor Gary Sinise. Its outreach supports those who sacrifice to defend our country: active duty, veterans, first responders, and their loved ones. While our mission is broad, we've created key programs to show gratitude for our American heroes through entertainment, family support, and acts of appreciation, these include: mortgage free, adaptive smart homes for the severely wounded; programs for families of the fallen, Gary Sinise & the Lt. Dan Band concerts for active service members, first responders and local communities; Invincible Spirit Festivals for wounded veterans; Relief & Resiliency Outreach; First Responders Outreach; meal support for active duty and active first responders; Arts & Entertainment Outreach; Ambassador Council; Mental Health program support and programs for WWII veterans.
