Staves of Honor is more than a nonprofit—it’s a mission-driven community rooted in service, fellowship, and the enduring spirit of veterans. Founded by military veterans who understand the challenges of life after service, Staves of Honor exists to support and uplift those transitioning from the military to civilian life. We recognize that the path home can be complex, and we’re here to ensure no veteran walks it alone.

Our name, Staves of Honor, pays tribute to the staves that hold together a whiskey barrel—strong, essential, and bonded with purpose. Much like those staves, our community is built on the strength of individuals working together to create something greater. We use whiskey, a symbol of American craftsmanship and tradition, as a tool to connect people, spark conversations, and drive change.

Through curated barrel picks, whiskey events, and collaborative partnerships, Staves of Honor raises funds and awareness for veteran-focused causes. We reinvest everything we raise into direct action—supporting job-seeking veterans, those facing homelessness, mental health struggles, or adjusting to a new chapter in life. Our programs are built on mentorship, community engagement, and tangible resources.

Whether you’re a veteran, a whiskey lover, or simply someone who believes in giving back, there’s a place for you at Staves of Honor. Join us in blending purpose with passion—and honoring those who continue to serve long after the uniform comes off.
