Healing Arizona Veterans (HAV) mission is to heal veterans suffering from Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) conditions with HBOT and supplementary therapies, at private facilities funded by private-public partnership.
Coming home with injuries nobody can easily see can make life feel painfully isolating. For some veterans, combat-related TBI and PTSD can affect sleep, mood, memory, relationships, work, and the simple ability to feel like themselves again.
Healing Arizona Veterans helps meet that need by sponsoring access to treatment for post-9/11 veterans living with those invisible wounds.
Who They Are & What They Do
Healing Arizona Veterans exists for former service members carrying injuries that are not always easy to see. Combat-related TBI and PTSD can affect everyday life in quiet but serious ways, and many need support beyond words of appreciation.
This Tucson-based 501(c)3 veteran charity helps post-9/11 veterans access sponsored evaluations and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) at private facilities in Arizona. The organization is grassroots and all-volunteer, which gives its work a very personal, community-driven feel.
In practice, the organization’s support works in four ways:
- Sponsored evaluations and treatment: Healing Arizona Veterans uses donated funds to cover evaluations and HBOT treatment for qualified veterans.
- Focus on combat-related TBI and PTSD: The nonprofit specifically serves post-9/11 veterans dealing with traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress disorder connected to combat service.
- Private treatment locations in Arizona: Veterans can receive treatment through qualified private providers in Arizona, including locations tied to Phoenix and Tucson.
- All-volunteer support: HAV describes itself as a grassroots, all-volunteer organization. That matters because its site says 95% of donated funds are used for treatment.
The Need They’re Filling
Some of the hardest wounds from combat are the ones people cannot see. A veteran may look “fine” on the outside while dealing with headaches, memory issues, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, irritability, or the daily weight of PTSD.
That is why Healing Arizona Veterans focuses on combat-related TBI and PTSD. These conditions can affect work, family life, relationships, and a veteran’s sense of control over their own future.
The need is personal, but the numbers are strong, too.
Healing Arizona Veterans reports that since 2021, it has sponsored 245 veterans with 9,280 HBOT sessions. The organization also notes that from 2017 to 2021, it sponsored another 33 veterans with 1,565 HBOT sessions.
That kind of Arizona veteran support is focused and practical. HAV does not try to solve every veteran issue at once. It helps cover evaluations and HBOT treatment for veterans dealing with combat-related TBI and PTSD, giving them another possible path toward support when cost might otherwise stand in the way.
Healing Arizona Veterans helps fill this need through:
- Treatment access: Donated funds help sponsor evaluations and HBOT sessions.
- Focused support: The organization serves post-9/11 veterans with combat-related TBI and PTSD.
- Arizona-based care: Treatment takes place at private facilities in Arizona.
Your Car Donation for Veterans in Action
Your unwanted vehicle could help a veteran get access to care they might not be able to afford alone. That is the heart of this donation: putting it toward care for a veteran dealing with combat-related TBI or PTSD.
After your vehicle is sold, the proceeds help support Healing Arizona Veterans and its work with veterans facing TBI and PTSD. That support will provide:
- A path to evaluation: Covering the first step needed before treatment can begin
- Sponsored HBOT treatment: Helping veterans access care through private Arizona facilities
- Less financial stress: Making treatment more reachable for veterans who may not be able to pay out of pocket
- Efficient use of your gift: With 95% of donated funds going directly toward veteran treatment, your vehicle goes a long way toward care
The donation process is designed to be quick and simple for all donors. You share a few vehicle details, schedule free pickup, and let our team handle the rest. Your gift also qualifies as a tax deductible vehicle donation.
It is a practical way to put an unused vehicle toward treatment access for veterans living with combat-related TBI and PTSD.
Why Healing Arizona Veterans?
Healing Arizona Veterans is unique because its mission is not broad or vague. It focuses on a very specific group of veterans: post-9/11 service members living with combat-related TBI and PTSD.
That kind of focus makes donor support easier to understand. Contributions sponsor evaluations and HBOT sessions for veterans who may be searching for another option, but cannot easily cover treatment costs on their own.
The organization is also grassroots and volunteer-led. With 95% of donated funds going toward veteran treatment, supporters have a clear reason to trust where their gift is going.
For donors, that creates a clear connection between generosity and impact. Supporting Healing Arizona Veterans means standing behind a 501(c)3 veteran charity that is focused on care, access, and vets who deserve more options.
