Who we are
All-American Heroes Foundation is dedicated to supporting veterans and first responders in achieving mental wellness through outdoor activities, wellness programs, and "throttle therapy." With a mission to promote mental health and help participants reach their full potential, the foundation provides unique, immersive experiences aimed at fostering resilience, camaraderie, and personal growth.
Through outdoor wellness activities such as snowmobiling and ATV riding the All-American Heroes Foundation reconnects participants with the healing power of the outdoors. We also offer throttle therapy—a dynamic experience involving snowmobiles or ATV rides that helps reduce stress and encourage a sense of freedom and mental clarity.
The mission of All-American Heroes Foundation is to enhance the mental health and well-being of veterans, first responders, and their caregivers through throttle therapy, outdoor wellness, and backcountry education. We foster healing and resilience by promoting teamwork, communication, and a strong sense of community. Through shared adventure and purposeful connection, we empower our nation’s heroes and those who support them to grow, thrive, and rediscover their strength beyond service.
HOW WE CHANGE LIVES!
All American Heroes has given away a snowmobile every year since its inception in 2020 to a veteran or first responder. We have hosted many rides and have provided numerous scholarships to help veterans and first responders reach their peak and pursue their dreams.
