Recent Progress (2026)
From March through June 2026, Hire Heroes USA demonstrated sustained momentum across employment services, fundraising, and employer engagement. The period opened with ServiceMaster's golf tournament delivering $202,605 — part of a cumulative $700,000+ partnership — and closed with that same tournament surpassing $1 million raised in total. The 4th Annual Empowerment Gala in May raised $185,650 and spotlighted landmark partnerships, including Tailored Brands' 10-year, $3.2M+ relationship and the Call of Duty Endowment's role in funding 48,000+ veteran placements. New programs like The Ripple Effect Certified Veteran Employer Grants and the Liberty & Legacy Dinner Series expanded the organization's reach, while IBM SkillsBuild and virtual career fairs kept direct services flowing. The period concluded with a CEO transition announcement, signaling a leadership inflection point after more than a decade of growth.
