eligibility criteria
Please email us for a link to the new family application.
The Knights of Heroes program is
available to boys and girls across the country who have lost a parent in service to our
Nation. It is important that these children share a common bond. The
following eligibility criteria have been established:
*please note
Our programs were created to provide adult mentorship for children who
have lost a parent. Due to the limited availability of resources, we are unable to accommodate every family that applies to the program; as such, our programs focus on children who have no one in
their lives to provide them the mentorship they are missing since the
passing of their parent.
If your child has someone in their life to
fill this role, we ask that you please leave room for those without.
Thank you
for your understanding.

Stefanie's story
KOH makes an impact
Where do I begin? My son started with Knights of Heroes a very shy and meek young man. After several years of personal goals the mentors set with these youth, they grow in spirit and confidence. KOH has provided my son with positive mentors, an amazing outdoor experience, and lifelong friendships, all in which I could not provide for him. These children greatly need this challenging experience, that encourages them to work hard throughout the year. At 16, my son has an outgoing personality and learns something new about himself with each experience. Thank you for this life changing program!!!
