I routinely donate to this organization to give back to SEALs past/present and their families this organization is very solid and always actually doing what they say they do.a lot of charities are honest but how many pay rent ? For parties ? Navy SEALs Fund is Retired Team Guys giving back to their community and nothing more I'm proud to donate to them and give back to people who give up at times everything but ask nothing in return
The Navy SEALs Fund is a legitimate 501(c)(3) non-profit, established in December of 2009 by former Navy SEALs.
Its primary mission is to provide relief through educational and/or financial assistance
for current and former SEAL teammates and families. Their overall objective is to reduce the financial burden of members of the Navy SEAL Community who are in need of assistance.
The Navy SEALs Fund is a 100% Volunteer organization. I am proud to support this group.
The Navy SEALS Fund is, most importantly, a legitimate 501C non profit organization. There are far too many scams taking advantage of generous, good hearted people who want to support families of fallen and injured SEALS with their financial donation. The Navy SEALs Fund were extremely responsive and caring after the loss of my son, a former Navy SEAl. They were instrumental in ensuring my son's 4 year old daughter lives in a safe, comfortable home providing the foundation for a secure and happy life. I , as will all my family, will be forever grateful to the Navy SEAL Fund and all its donors and supports. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

It is always important to research a charity on your own. For starters, you can confirm on your own that the Navy SEALS Fund is indeed a 501c3 approved, tax-exempt organization per the federal guidelines.
On top of this, they provided transparent accountability every year.
And if that was not enough, they are part of the very community that they are helping.
The board members have been there, done that, and know what it takes to make things happen for the families in need.
Supporting and donating to this organization is a no-brainer.
As the President of this non profit I can assure you our fund takes pride in absolute transparency and efficiency, our board is small, composed of members that all operate without salary. 99% of your dollar will go to assisting those in need.
The NavySEALs fund is able to act rapidly without stalling because we have direct dialog with the family members, widows, and children of our fallen brethren. We have seen the effects of losing a family member and know how to assist them in a manner befiting with the highest standards of any non profit.
We do this because it is our duty, because it is the right thing to do, the only thing to do that can make a direct immediate impact for those that have lost their loved ones fighting for our freedom.
The Navy SEALs fund, where to begin. They are simply wonderful; I am so thankful & humbled to be able to support such a cause via monetary donations & via awareness through social media channels. Did you know their entire team consists of volunteers? Volunteers who give of their time & efforts, not expecting anything in return! Aside from their work, family, & personal lives they go above and beyond to welcome all into their mission. They are comprised of some former SEALs who know the direct needs of their Brothers & their families. This charity strives to "ensure that no one goes it alone," allowing for us outside of this community to support these brave warriors & their families. As a civilian, it is important to recognize & honor the sacrifice made on my behalf...our nation's behalf. It is incredibly vital to support our warriors in such a way that they won't have any worries about home as they work to defend & protect us; or even when they are home, to simply know that we truly are here for them & care enough to give back.
Navy SEALs Fund not only connects with us as donors on a personal level but provides practical means for donations. Donors can give online their site navysealsfund.org, through participation in events that are "virtual" like the Brotherhood Beyond Battlefield 5K, through other events & training, through Amazon Smile: https://smile.amazon.com/ch/27-1405731 - I have committed to purchasing products now through Amazon this way just so that it will give back to the Navy SEALs Fund...it's so easy! I have seen the results of these donations that have served SEAL families and how it has impacted their lives as a warrior to know how much they are cared for outside of their community.
They are an amazing group of people in the Navy SEALs Fund - I am a raving fan...they truly connect with donors on a personal level & have fun in doing so along with their SEAL community. You are missing out if you are not already a part of this amazing mission to support the SEAL community and this charity.
Never would I have expected such personal interaction (so many other charities don't do that), however, rest assured that Navy SEALs Fund does! They not only deserve our support, but they need it! Please, do not hesitate to join in & help them ensure that no one goes it alone, support them today however you can.
Navy SEALS Fund is an amazing charity that bridges the gap between larger organizations like The Navy SEAL Foundation, who are good but are often slow to get money and support where needed. My business has donated to this group and I have heard from the families about how much the group helps Navy SEALS and their families.
It's actually run by Navy SEALS and the money goes to those in need.
I have worked closely with the Navy SEALs Fund for nearly two years, and the former SEAL who started this fund with his wife, and all those who are on the board of the charity are Patriots and people of the highest caliber, many of them having served valiantly in the SEAL teams. They all exemplify the highest standards of honor and excellence, and display the utmost level of stewardship of every dollar they receive. All of us who volunteer expect nothing in return.
They have persevered through enormous difficulty having been attacked relentlessly from numerous miscreant scam artists, and even by a former member of the NSW community who traded the brotherhood and his Trident for a few bucks.
Through all of those distractions, they have relentlessly endeavored to do as much good for the SEAL community and beyond, taking on numerous causes for the veteran community at large.
With my career, I have very little free time, but it has been the greatest honor of my lifetime to stand beside the heroes who have sacrificed so much for our freedoms and give back a fraction of what I owe our warriors. Furthermore, I know of no story that embodies the best of the American dream than that of the man who is behind this charity. I am fortunate to know him and his wife personally, and honored to call them friends.
You can rest assured that Navy SEALs Fund works tirelessly to support SEALs and their families that are in need, and are champions for truth, honor, and Patriotism. As an aside, I am somewhat incredulous that people like Mr. "Easy Day" would write such nonsensical and libelous review on this board. Clearly, he or she has an agenda, and should not be taken seriously. They are an agitator, are being patently dishonest, and are a disgrace to the memory of all of our military by writing that garbage. The only reason this person has an "easy day" is due to the sacrifices of the men and women he besmirches with those derogatory comments. Let him give us his real name and air out his grievances elsewhere instead of taking the tact of a coward making unsubstantiated claims on this website.
Please continue to support the NSW community and all legitimate veteran causes like the Navy SEALs Fund. Thanks. God bless.
A great charity that is focused passionately on its mission and making sure every cent donated is used to directly help those the fund is focused on.
I have donated to this organization in the past and support our military. I must say that Drago is a little "obsessed" with an individual. If his claims were true something would have happened with law enforcement. I cannot speak for everyone but with each outburst he looks more childish and chips away at his credibility. As a hero of mine and someone who should distinguish themselves above pond scum he should focus his efforts elsewhere.
What an amazing organization that has helped when no one else was there to help. Every person in this organization works with zero pay, and donates their time, money, and personal resources to make it successful. I stand in full support of this Nonprofit and the life changing work it does.
I have donated to the Navy SEALs Fund for years, and I am honored to continue with my financial support of this Great Nonprofit.

Review from Guidestar
The Navy SEALs Fund has been a leader in the field of non-profit philanthropy with high regard to integrity and honor. While many of their assistance cannot be made public, due to security and privacy, they have helped hundreds since conception.
Although recently they have been attacked by a scam artist who is doing everything he can to steal their identity, URL branding, in an effort to cause them to shut down once and for all. This is the type of behavior that goes unnoticed, until the non-profit is devoid of all funding sources, so they can petition to the IRS for control of the non-profit status. When a scam artist takes control of an IRS status non-profit, they are then able to continue with their scam and harm the community at large. As someone who donates to this organization, I have done my homework, conducted my own investigation into the executive control of this organization, and can say with knowledge and expertise, they are doing everything the right way. Unfortunately, the scam artist is employing his friends to help him destroy the name and branding of this organisation, which is despicable.
Accordingly, please do not believe the negative rantings of individual who have taken the time to post negative reviews about this WORTHY ORGANIZATION, they are not to be believed. Do your own homework by googling the organizations name, and you will see the horrible attack perpetuated against them by a scam artist.
