Supporting Our Wounded Heroes
Walter Reed Weekend Retreat
Each year, Hooks for Heroes Connecticut proudly brings severely wounded troops from Walter Reed Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland, to Stamford for a well-deserved weekend of rest and appreciation. These brave service members, currently undergoing therapy and medical treatment for their war injuries, are given a special opportunity to step away from the hospital and enjoy time with their loved ones. We extend this invitation to their spouses and children, ensuring their stay is comfortable and meaningful. Most importantly, this weekend serves as a heartfelt salute and thank-you to these heroes, offering them a break from therapy to relax with their families.
Monthly Support Program
Through the generous funds raised from the Hooks for Heroes Charity Tournament and your gracious donations, we partner with Disabled American Veterans Stamford Chapter 13's "Operation Gift Cards". Each month, our delegations personally deliver Thank You Cards and Gift Cards to troops at their bedside. Additionally, we provide care packages containing toiletries, snacks, and Gift Cards to the military base PX for families who have relocated or are staying with their loved ones during recovery.
