WISH for OUR HEROES is a national 501(c)(3), dedicated to assisting the men and women of the United States active-duty military.  WISH for OUR HEROES launched in November of 2009, in honor of 1SG Thomas G. Wells, who was a career Marine.  The founders of WISH for OUR HEROES served on active-duty and while deployed, they recognized that a serious need existed within our military ranks.   There were so many great charities in existence, but the majority of them focused on specific groups or categories:  WIA, KIA, bankruptcy, divorce, etc.  There were no charities that focused on not only helping military members falling into these extreme categories, but also helping the average, hard-working military member going through a difficult time.
