Husker Fans Salute the Troops Foundation
Board Of Directors

The Husker Fans Salute the Troops Foundation is committed to Salute, Serve, and Support Veterans and active military personnel, to ensure that every person with Military ties in Nebraska and surrounding communities feels respected and appreciated for their service and hopeful for the future.

In May 2021 the Board met and set a new vision for Husker Salute:

"By providing essential stress-reducing solutions, The Husker Fans Salute the Troops Foundation is focused on making a long-lasting impact on the lives of Veterans and active military and their families.  With genuine appreciation and dedicated support services, we strive to prepare Veterans and active military to have successful everyday lives, providing each family hope for tomorrow and ultimately reducing PTSD and suicides in Nebraska and surrounding communities."

1) “Raise Funds via annual Husker Salute Golf Scramble Fundraising Event, private funders, individual donations, federal grants, other fund-raising efforts to specifically support the annual Husker Fans Salute the Troops Events, one $500 scholarship for a veteran to attend UNL, and 2 teams of 4 disabled veterans with complimentary golf at annual event.”

2) “Each year, Husker Salute plans to host a weekend of praise, pampering and preparation for Nebraska Veterans and military families at basically NO cost for approximately 100 military families. Programming will include an inspirational keynote speaker and FUN, FREE, FAMILY orientated activities. Attendees will receive free hotel accommodations, three complimentary meals, and a tour of a Husker Athletic Facilities as permitted.” A small registration fee per family will be charged at registration.

3) At the Annual Husker Fans Salute the Troops Family event, the Foundation will Salute, Serve and Support Veterans and active military by providing them with stress-relieving programs such as celebratory events, relaxing family-centered activities in preparing for successful everyday lives, provide each family hope for tomorrow, and ultimately reduce suicides among military in Nebraska. Such programming could include financial advice, housing assistance; blood pressure measurements; medical consultations; psychological assistance, and new programming each year.
