Our Mission

When soldiers are injured, their lives, and the lives of their loved ones, are never the same. Although the government and many organizations do their part, essential needs still go unmet. 

Too many injured soldiers face long recoveries, emotional trauma, financial strain, and profound isolation.

Adopt-A-Soldier exists to fill that gap
We provide monthly stipends and personal connection. Restoring dignity, stability, and hope for soldiers and their families when they need it most.

How It Works

Direct

Adopt-A-Soldier connects donors directly with injured soldiers and their families, ensuring funds reach the family without intermediaries.

Impactful

Your support provides flexible monthly financial aid, allowing each family to address their most pressing needs.

Transparent

When you adopt a soldier, every dollar goes directly to that soldier and their family. General donations keep Adopt-A-Soldier running, funding operations, outreach, and events to support more families.

Relational

Many donors choose to build a personal bond through WhatsApp, weekly ‘Shabbat Shalom’ greetings, or in-person visits.

Deductible

Your donation is tax-deductible in the US. Adopt-A-Soldier is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

Impact Stories

David’s Recovery

After his injury, David couldn’t return to work. The stress of providing for his wife and two children was overwhelming. Through Adopt-A-Soldier, his family now receives monthly support, and regular calls from the donor who adopted them. “It’s more than financial,” his wife shared. “It’s knowing someone cares.”

Eli & Miriam

Eli sustained injuries during his final year of service. He and his mother, Miriam, were struggling to cover rent and medical needs. Adopt-A-Soldier helped bridge that gap. “This changed our life,” Miriam said. “For the first time, we felt seen.”
