The Veterans Valor project is a collaborative initiative led by the Morristown Rotary in partnership with the County of Morris and various New Jersey nonprofits. Our mission is to raise public awareness, support, and engagement for veterans and their families. Through our innovative programs, we aim to honor those who served and help facilitate their healing journey.

Our Mission
To honor and stand with those who have served, transforming the scars of war into spaces of healing through nature, art, and human connection.
Through our Healing Gardens and supportive programs, we bring veterans and civilians together to restore body, mind, and spirit—turning pain into purpose, isolation into community, and sacrifice into hope.
Benefits of the Veterans Valor Project
Our project aims to create significant benefits for veterans and the community alike:

Physical Healing
Through our garden and related activities, we facilitate physical therapy and rehabilitation, supporting veterans in their recovery journeys.
Mental Health Support
Our programs are designed to reduce symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression, providing veterans with the resources they need to thrive.
Social Connection
Foster community among veterans and the public, countering feelings of isolation.
Accessibility and Inclusion
Design accessible pathways, raised planting beds, and seating areas to ensure everyone can participate.
