Honor Charity is proudly rooted in Tucson
And serves the Southern Arizona veteran community with direct financial assistance. Unlike traditional organizations, every dollar donated goes directly into the hands of a veteran.
Our Mission
At Honor Charity, we’re on a mission to uplift veterans and their families across Tucson and Southern Arizona with immediate financial support for critical needs. Every public donation goes directly to rent relief, medical expenses, travel assistance, and other urgent essentials — ensuring stability when crisis strikes.

What began at Bernie’s kitchen table—awarding the first $100 emergency grant to a fellow veteran in need—has grown into a fully volunteer-run nonprofit dedicated to serving Tucson and the Southern Arizona veteran community. Honor Charity is a 501(c)(3) founded by U.S. Army veteran Sgt. Bernie Colonna.
