Hoodies for Heroes

The Wall That Heals

The Yellowstone Veterans Committee is seeking financial support from businesses and individuals to help cover the costs of bringing The Wall That Heals and its accompanying mobile education center to the Billings area.

Donations will also be used to promote the event, support volunteers, and ensure a respectful and professional presentation of this memorial experience. Upon completion of the event, any remaining funds will be donated to associated veteran nonprofit organizations serving the Yellowstone County community.

In-kind sponsorships that directly offset event expenses may qualify for sponsorship recognition at equivalent levels, based on fair market value.

Hoodies for Heroes, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is the fiscal sponsor for The Wall That Heals – Billings, MT (2026). In this role, Hoodies for Heroes will oversee the collection, management, and disbursement of charitable donations in support of the event.
