MISSION:
To improve the quality of life of our wounded, ill, and injured veterans and their families through participation in adventurous and challenging outdoor activities.
Regardless of age, gender, race, or ethnicity, the Allied Forces Foundation will focus on rehabilitation and empowerment for these wounded heroes and their families, who clearly understand the high cost of freedom.
ABOUT ALLIED FORCES FOUNDATION:
Allied Forces Foundation, a non-profit organization, was established to unite wounded, ill, and injured Veterans and caregivers from US, UK, and allied nations forces in wellness and healing.
Through a series of outdoor, peer-led events that challenge the mind and body, the Allied Forces Foundation provides opportunities that reinvigorate the spirit of comradeship and teamwork and instill a renewed sense of purpose in the Veteran.
The Allied Forces Foundation is predominantly an American/British charity to bring US, UK, and allied nations Veterans, caregivers, and families together for community activities. ‘Side by Side’ is our motto because it exemplifies our approach to recovery. Those who have fought together reunite, share experiences, and offer support to one another.
Allied Forces Foundation Founder & Chairman Emeritus, Maj (Rtd) Stephen Cain MBE.
A graduate of the Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, he was commissioned into the Royal Warwickshire Fusiliers. His distinguished military career earned him many honors, including being awarded a Member of the British Empire by Her Majesty the Queen for operational duties as Company Commander.
Stephen was devoted to enhancing the special relationship between Britain and America, and the steadfast alliance of Commonwealth nations in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. He furthered this commitment to British and American forces by establishing the Allied Forces Foundation, with the goal of providing experiences that unite and heal Allied wounded, ill, and injured. His leadership elevated the awareness of the organization and established the foundation on which the Allied Forces Foundation continues to grow.
We are forever grateful to Major Cain for this commitment to the Allied Forces Foundation. His inspiration has touched the lives of many.
