A Hero's Promise
A Hero's Promise is a veteran service organization that first and formost remember's the fallen men and women of this nation and their families. We support Gold Star families during their times of need. We come alongside the family to lift them back up onto their feet with community support. We are a conduit to other institutional veteran organizations that can better meet the needs of our veterans and their families. We work to prevent veteran suicides by listening, talking, and intervention when necessary. We support families of veterans who commit suicide with funeral help however we can and other honors normally afforded to veterans. We accomplish this by networking with other veterans, veterans groups and veteran organizations to provide immediate support to veterans and their families; regardless of their status. Gold Star Families-Families who lost a member during war time. We do fundraisers, provide volunteer labor and connect veterans in with larger organizations to fit the needs of the veteran. We assist them to get back onto their feet by providing a hand UP not a a hand OUT.
We created a traveling memorial in September 2017, we have taken the memorial to many events and memorials. We unvieled our second soldier cross memorial at our 3rd annual Remember Our Fallen Memorial on May 26th 2018 at the cemetery in Roy Washington. We are here for the fallen and their families, here to serve. We created the memorial by hand with love, passion, compassion and service for all our fallen brothers and sisters who have laid down their life for this nation and each and every one of us whether in combat or here at home.
We are working on our third memorial right now! Hoping to unviel in October, we will keep you posted.

No Veteran should have to live or die on our streets.

!GOLD STAR SURVIVOR
The flag included a blue star for every immediate family member serving in the armed forces of the United States, during any period of war or hostilities in which the armed forces of the United States were engaged. If that loved one died, the blue star was replaced by a gold star. This allowed members of the community to know the price that the family had paid in the cause of freedom. The Army recognizes that no one has given more for the nation than the families of the fallen.
