The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund

The Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund is building a 60,000 sqft medical facility at Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio, Texas. This will be an advanced training facility for severely disabled military personnel. The fund has a four star rating with Charity Navigator, their highest rating.

To date over 15,000 men and women have been wounded in operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. Some are treated in the field and returned to duty, others require more extensive care in an in-theater medical facility, but eventually return to duty. More severely injured personnel are transferred to military hospitals in the U.S. Some of these troops are ultimately returned to duty. But some suffer injuries so severe that they require extensive medical care, years of treatment and rehabilitation, and they are medically discharged from the armed forces. Their future quality of life, their ability to care for themselves and provide for their families, and their very survival depends on the treatment, rehabilitation and advanced training skills they receive following their injury.

This Facility will serve not only those injured in Iraq and Afghanistan, but also veterans injured in prior conflicts and service members critically injured in non-combat operations. The center will be built in conjunction with and attached directly to two 21-room Fisher Houses. Click here for more information on Fisher Houses.

This Facility will be presented by the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund to all five military branches and to the Department of Veterans Affairs.
