About Tee It Up for the Troops
Tee It Up for the Troops Inc. centers its grantmaking on veterans and military families, with funded work tied to PTSD and traumatic brain injury treatment, suicide awareness and prevention, employment, sports and recreation, family and caregiver support, and housing. Across the recent grants list, the foundation repeatedly backs established veteran-service organizations with program assistance rather than individual aid. Two of the largest recent awards show that pattern clearly: Fisher House received $250,000 in 2024 and $222,500 in 2025 for program assistance, while Move United received $150,000 in 2024 and $140,000 in 2025. Both organizations appear again in the recent-grants record, which suggests ongoing relationships rather than isolated one-time awards. The foundation also uses its funding to connect service delivery with veteran engagement. It supports the REUNION outreach program, which reunites combat veterans to address mental health challenges such as PTSD, depression, isolation, and suicide risk. Other recent grantees include Salute Military Golf Association Inc, The Warriors Journey, Creativets, Project Sanctuary, Purple Heart Homes, and Blue Star Families, indicating a mix of mental health, recreation, family support, and housing-oriented partners.
What Tee It Up for the Troops Funds
A major theme in Tee It Up for the Troops Inc.’s grantmaking is veteran mental health and recovery. It awarded $60,000 in 2025 to Salute Military Golf Association Inc. for program assistance, and it also funded the REUNION outreach program to reunite combat veterans and support mental health recovery. Sports and recreation is another visible area. Move United received $150,000 in 2024 and $140,000 in 2025, reflecting sustained support for recreation-based programming. The foundation also gave $25,000 in 2025 to Blue Star Families and $23,000 in 2024 to Purple Heart Homes, showing support that extends to family and caregiver needs as well as housing. Creative and community-based support appears in smaller awards too. Creativets received $35,000 in 2025, and Project Sanctuary received $30,000 in 2024. These grants sit alongside employment and reintegration-oriented partners such as The Warriors Journey and Combat Veterans to Careers.
