The North Carolina Heroes’ Fund is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization dedicated to supporting the men and women of North Carolina who support us. The Fund’s focus is on men and women, or their families who are currently serving or have recently served in the United States Armed Forces and are enduring financial hardships.

These financial hardships are often due to overseas service. The Fund’s mission is to improve the quality of life of North Carolina’s military service personnel and their families by assisting with needs unmet by the U.S. Government
