Overview

Mission

The 50 mile march foundation empowers veterans facing mental health challenges and homelessness by fostering a community of hope and relentless support.

What it reported doing in 2025

Community of hope initiative: the newly purchased land is a cornerstone of our plan to create a veteran-focused campus that will offer a 27,000 square foot community center co-locating multiple partners providing mental and physical health services, job training and workforce development, community support service, and more. In addition, a transitional housing project is planned.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Hybrid. The nonprofit split its reported program spending across 75% for direct work, and 25% for grants.
  • Includes noncash contributions: Reported contributions include donated property or goods.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and most voting board members are independent. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised.
