About Us

Founded in 2024 by former U.S. Army Sergeant Bernie Colonna—a service-disabled veteran with an unwavering commitment to those who serve—Honor Charity was born from a deep sense of purpose and personal mission. After witnessing firsthand the critical gaps in care and support for veterans and their families, SGT Colonna launched this 501(c)(3) nonprofit to be a lifeline for the military community in Tucson and Southern Arizona.

Honor Charity exists to bridge the divide between existing services and the real-world needs of our nation’s heroes. From financial assistance and emergency relief to mental health advocacy and community reintegration support, we focus on delivering impactful, high-touch programs that change lives. By targeting underserved veterans and their families, we ensure that no warrior is left behind.

Rooted in values like honor, service, and community, our foundation stands as a beacon of hope and a force multiplier for positive change. Through donor generosity and local partnerships, we provide sustainable, year-round support for those who’ve given everything for our country.

At Honor Charity, we don’t just say “thank you”—we show it.

At Honor Charity, we turn compassion into action by providing direct financial support to service members, veterans, and their families who’ve fallen through the cracks of traditional aid programs. Too often, these heroes face real-world challenges—from housing instability and medical expenses to emergency needs—without access to the resources they deserve.

That’s where we step in.

Our mission is laser-focused: identify those in urgent need, assess their unique situations, and deliver timely, impactful assistance that creates immediate relief and long-term hope. Unlike many larger organizations, Honor Charity takes a hands-on, veteran-first approach—ensuring that support goes straight to those who need it most.

Whether it's helping a military family stay in their home, funding critical repairs, or providing essential living resources, we offer flexible, high-impact grants tailored to individual stories.
