Your donation supports a research and awareness initiative countering online threats to the veteran and military family (VMF) community by foreign adversaries and other bad actors.
Our Homefront Sentinel project identifies and combats scams, cyber attacks, and propaganda targeting the VMF community, and educates veteran and military family members on how to better protect themselves and their loved ones online from these threats. In 2025-2026, your support will 1) fund our False Valor research that exposes those who co-opt and exploit the U.S. military brand and community, 2) strengthen our Homefront Resilience program that safeguards military and veteran service organizations and their members from these threats, and 3) support scaled efforts to build awareness and strengthen defenses against malign influence and foreign interference for the broader veteran and military family community, as well as the general public.
