The Full Story
Heroes’ Turn Foundation is a new nonprofit organization based out of middle Tennessee, whose mission is to connect veterans, service members, active and retired first responders, and their families, with skilled trades and services. Life happens, and it’s sometimes the little things that mean the most. When Heroes experience financial hardships with their homes, property, vehicles, pets, or other necessary resources, that’s when Heroes’ Turn Foundation steps in. The possibilities are endless. Our organization will connect these Heroes to the services they need to get the job done, at no expense to them. Through donations from generous individuals and businesses, and with the help of our trade partners, Heroes’ Turn Foundation will take care of whatever situation presents itself, to ease the stress of those that have given all to serve us.

Example Missions
At Heroes' Turn Foundation, we don’t give out cash directly. Instead, we team up with local businesses that are willing to discount their services for our Heroes, and with donations from generous individuals and businesses, we take care of the rest. Not all businesses are able to discount their rates, some may be able to slightly, others may be able to provide significant discounts or free services. Each mission is unique. In all situations, the service will be provided at no cost to the Hero. All discounted or free services are considered tax deductible donations. Below are some examples of potential missions.
Home Repairs
John Policeman is a local police officer. He's been protecting and serving for over a decade. John's A/C unit goes out in the middle of summer. Heroes' Turn Foundation steps in and finds a local HVAC company that is willing to discount their services to help our Hero. Helpful HVAC graciously discounts their bill 20%. Heroes' Turn Foundation pays the remaining 80%. John Policeman's family stays cool, Helpful HVAC feels good helping a Hero (and receives a tax write-off for their donated services, plus recognition and free advertising on our website and social media channels), and Heroes' Turn Foundation completes another mission.
Vehicle Repairs
Sally Navy Veteran gets in her car to head to work and it won't go into gear. She has it towed to the local mechanic and is told she'll need a new transmission. This unexpected financial hardship creates unnecessary stress for her family. Heroes' Turn Foundation steps in, finds a local mechanic willing to discount their services 10%, and the foundation pays the remaining 90%. Now Sally’s car is fixed, the mechanic is happy to help a Hero (and get a tax write-off for the donated services, plus recognition and free advertising on our website and social media channels), and Heroes' Turn Foundation completes another mission.
Landscaping
Trevor Army Staff Sergeant gets deployed to fight for our country. He abruptly must leave his wife Sarah and their two young kids to selflessly go protect others. She is left solo to care for their children and household on her own. Heroes' Turn Foundation steps in and finds a local landscaping business that can fit Trevor and Sarah's yard into their regular schedule. The landscaping company is proud to discount their services 25% for such a great cause, and the Foundation pays the remaining 75% of the weekly recurring bill. Trevor and Sarah’s lawn and yard are maintained on the regular until he returns from deployment, the landscaper receives a tax write-off for their donated services plus recognition and free advertising on our website and social media channels, and Heroes' Turn Foundation completes another mission.
