Mission and programs · 2023

Mission

Our mission is to Connect Students with Veterans to honor veterans, preserve Americas heritage, and develop future leaders. Helping to bridge the gap between civilian and military life, we strive to develop students' character and civic responsibility, while recognizing our veterans' legacy of service. As students preserve veterans service stories, they are inspired to live a life of honor.

Activities or mission (Part I)

Imprints of Honor TM (formerly Veterans Heritage Project) facilitates an award-winning, after-school program which develops character and civic responsibility in students by providing experiential learning programs to honor veterans and preserve their legacies. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, our program is offered in middle schools, high schools, and colleges, impacting thousands of students, while interviewing hundreds of veterans annually. Their stories are preserved in the Library of Congress and through the student-publication, Since You Asked.TM Program elements also include community book receptions, veteran presentations, civic engagement, and college scholarships. The program is recognized by the Arizona Department of Education as a Character Education program and is approved in all categories for the Seal of Civics Literacy. The Congressional Medal of Honor Society, Veterans Hall of Fame Society, Arizona Humanities, and Arizona Council for Social Studies are among many organizatio

  • Chapter Program-Our program is conducted through school chapters (clubs.) Guided by a trained teacher who volunteers to serve as a Chapter Advisor, students complete our curriculum and program activities over the course of a school year. Students learn the history behind military conflicts from World War II to the War on Terror, videography and photography basics; and communication skills in preparation to interview a veteran. The recorded oral history video interview is preserved in the Library of Congress. Students write, edit, and publish the veterans stories in a student produced hard-bound book, Since You Asked. Schools collaborate to plan and host community events at the end of the school year to honor their veterans and present the completed work with a book signing open to the public. Participating students and veterans each receive a free book, and additional copies are available for sale. The books are also donated to the Library of Congress. Additional enrichment activities include Veterans Day events, veteran classroom presentations or school assemblies, and scholarships.Chapter Program 25 School Partners 205 Student Participants 244 Veteran Legacies Preserved Student Feedback100% of high school seniors are pursuing continuing education94% have developed a mentor relationship with at least one of their veterans83% improved ability to collaborate87% improved public speaking96% improved listening skills100% increase appreciation for service95% increased understanding of civic responsibilityVeteran Feedback90% Exceeded Expectations - Sharing Oral History86% Exceeded Expectations - Interaction with Student88% Exceeded Expectations Quality of Final Essay100% Exceeded Expectations - Quality of Published Book100% Exceeded Expectations Experience of Book Signing36% First time sharing story85% Found experience cathartic100% Recommend to another veteran

  • Imprints of Honor awards seven scholarships to high school seniors who have been active in a school Chapter for a minimum of two years. Students must have a teacher recommendation and compete via essay contests, where they describe how veterans have impacted their character and encouraged their future, or how they have been of service to their school chapter and veteran community. The awards include a commemorative medal, a one-time $1500, $2000, $2500 or $3000 scholarship payable to the student; up to a $17,500 renewable award up to four years, credited to the students account at their selected institute of higher learning. Each scholarship is presented at our culminating program activity, the Annual Community Reception and Book Signing. We also partner with the Arizona Veterans Hall of Fame Society (AVHOFS), who provides three additional scholarships for our students. These awards are presented directly to the students at AVHOFSs annual Patriotic Luncheon. We purchase a table for $500 to attend the event with the students, and their families and teachers.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
