Senator Elizabeth Dole's eyes were opened to the tremendous challenges facing military caregivers when her husband, Bob, was admitted to Walter Reed Medical Center. During her frequent visits, she listened to stories from caregivers and their families whose lives had suddenly changed forever. Their frustration, fear and struggle in the immediate wake of a loved one’s catastrophic injuries inspired Senator Dole to launch the Elizabeth Dole Foundation to support our hidden heroes.

The Elizabeth Dole Foundation draws attention to the untold stories of military caregivers. By shining a light on these hidden heroes, our country can work together to seek solutions for the tremendous challenges and long-term needs of our nation’s military caregivers.
