What Three Rangers Foundation does

Three Rangers Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN: 47-2067593) that supports veterans, Gold Star families, Fallen Ranger families, and affiliates of the U.S. Army's 75th Ranger Regiment. Its core mission is to assist this defined community through military-to-civilian transition, providing personalized mentorship from former Rangers, career placement via a Ranger-friendly employer network reported at over 100 companies, education and scholarship pathways, family and spouse resources, mental health and wellness support (delivered in coordination with the Wounded Warrior Project), and community engagement through events such as the Virtual Mog Mile and an annual Golf Tournament.

The foundation does not develop proprietary technology. Its service infrastructure is built on a Squarespace-hosted website, Mailchimp email newsletters, and event platforms, supplemented by referral integrations with third parties including Veterans ASCEND (AI-powered skills matching), Oplign, Korn Ferry (via DOD SkillBridge), and multiple higher education programs. It also maintains a Ranger Buddies directory supporting Ranger-owned businesses and a Ranger History archive. The organization has earned a GuideStar Platinum Seal and a Charity Navigator three-star rating in 2026.

Revenue is generated primarily through charitable donations (one-time and recurring, accepted via website, mail, PayPal, and Venmo) and merchandise sales through Bonfire in partnership with TransUnion Veterans Alliance, with 100% of profits after material costs directed to TRF programs. All services are provided free of charge to eligible beneficiaries. The foundation is headquartered at 325 Lakeway Terrace, Spring Hill, Tennessee, with a mailing address in Westminster, Maryland, and operates as an independent charitable entity with no disclosed parent organization or venture backing.
