INVEST IN OWNERSHIP.
FUND LEGACY. TRANSFORM LIVES.
This isn’t charity.
It’s succession. It’s leadership. It’s impact that multiplies.
At Owners In Honor™, we don’t just talk about legacy—we preserve it by helping small business owners pass the torch to veteran-connected leaders who are ready to own it.
Private donors like you make that mission real.
You don’t just fund programs.
You launch leaders.
You protect communities.
You keep America’s small business backbone alive—and thriving.
LET’S TURN YOUR GENEROSITY INTO A LIFETIME OF IMPACT.
"Owners In Honor™ creates a pathway for veterans, especially those from Special Operations, to transition into business ownership. The program pairs you with advisors, resources, and ongoing support—guiding you from search to success and helping you build a lasting legacy."
Nicholas Bellenbaum, Program Participant
"I chose to get involved with Owners In Honor™ because it was the best option for learning how to buy a company as I transitioned out of the Army. The mission is profoundly personal—it offers veterans like me a chance at the American dream we helped defend. Owners In Honor™ anticipated needs I didn’t even know I’d have, and their support kept my acquisition deal from falling through multiple times. They provide purpose, community, and the reassurance that we’re not alone in this journey."
Alex Clark, Program Participant
"Owners In Honor™ gave power back to veterans with the entrepreneurial spirit to own and operate businesses. Their program provides purpose, structure, and a long-term approach—helping veterans buy, run, and transition businesses while preserving community legacies."
Mathew Lehnig, VP of Programs, Accelerate

THE IMPACT AT STAKE
Every year, more than 10,000 small businesses close due to lack of succession. At the same time, 200,000+ Veterans, Military Spouses, and Gold Star family members transition out—ready to lead, but locked out of opportunity.
You can be the link.
Veterans trained through Owners In Honor™ are:
-
2x more likely to create jobs within their first year
-
3x more likely to remain in and serve their communities
-
Capable of generating $250K–$1M+ in economic output annually

Because when Veterans own America’s future, we all win.
