Our Mission
Patriotic HeartsInc. is a non-profit organization established under the laws of the state of California. The organization's primary mission is to assist US Military, Veterans, and their families in having happy, successful, and fulfilling lives.
Patriotic Hearts is funded almost solely through its vehicle donation program. Americans across the continental US donate cars, trucks, boats, and RVs — usually when replaced by newer vehicles — to support our programs. Vehicles are sold at auctions or salvage yards, and proceeds fund all Patriotic Hearts programs nationwide.
