Help Veterans Find Healing Through the Lens
Your support provides equipment, workshops, and community for veterans discovering photography's transformative power.
Every veteran's transition is different. For some, traditional therapy works. For others, healing comes through creative expression - through seeing the world differently, telling their story visually, and connecting with fellow veterans who understand.
The f/22 Project exists because veterans deserve options. Your donation ensures that any veteran, regardless of financial circumstances, can access our photography workshops and therapeutic programming at no cost.
Why Donate to the f/22 Project?
✓ Veteran-founded and veteran-led - We understand the community we serve because we're part of it
✓ Direct impact - Small organization means your donation directly funds veteran programming, not layers of bureaucracy
✓ Proven approach - Creative arts therapy is evidence-based treatment for PTSD and transition challenges
✓ Zero cost to veterans - No veteran is turned away due to inability to pay
✓ Community-focused - We're building lasting connections, not just one-time workshops
