Stronger Together Foundation, LLC is a veteran-founded non-profit 501(c)(3) organization established in 2021 by retired Master Sergeant Michael Couch of the Mississippi Air National Guard, along with a dedicated group of family and friends affected by suicide.
Our foundation was created to address two critical needs:
-
To tackle the alarming number of military service members, veterans, and first responders who take their own lives each day.
-
To support families in coping with the loss of a loved one to suicide.
Our mission is to provide resources and community support to the friends and families of veterans who have been lost to suicide. We aim to create an environment where those left behind can process their grief and connect with others who have experienced similar tragedies.
In addition to our support services, we have established an endowment fund to provide scholarships, such as the Bridge The Gap and Legacy Scholarships, to children of veterans lost to suicide. These scholarships are part of our broader efforts to honor those we have lost by investing in the future of their families.
Stronger Together Foundation is committed to building a network of people affected by suicide, advocating for awareness, and offering support not just to military members and first responders, but to anyone left hurting by suicide. Together, we strive to create a community of compassion, resilience, and hope.
