An elderly Veteran in hospice care receiving a final salute as a thank you for his service to our country. A young cancer patient attending summer camp where she can just be a kid and forget her illness for a while. A homeless Veteran learning new job skills to help her get back into the workforce and back on her feet.
These are just a few examples of people in need in our community that have benefited through grants and donations from the TowerCares Foundation. To date, we have donated over $2.6 million to local organizations that support our mission.
None of the work we do would be possible without the generosity of our donors!
Thanks to TowerCares and donors like you…
- The Anne Arundel County Food Bank provides meals and snacks to over 1,000 low-income school children to take home on weekends and holiday breaks through the Backback Buddies program.

- Over 100 at-risk youth in Anne Arundel County, Md. attend their local Boys & Girls Clubs through a transportation grant from TowerCares. The Clubs serve at-risk youth and provide a safe and supportive environment with a focus on outreach, community service, academic success and career preparation.
- Make-A-Wish® Mid-Atlantic was able to grant life-changing wishes of children with critical illnesses, whose parents are active duty, reserve or Veterans, through TowerCares’ support of Operation Dream Maker.
- The Travis Manion Foundation empowers Veterans and families of fallen heroes to help develop character in future generations, and to assist Veterans in their transition from service, through the Character Does Matter program. The program leverages the skills of our military community as role models, educating youth on character and leadership, developing meaningful relationships, and improving their well-being and mental health. Veterans volunteer as mentors to inspire students to live a life of service, leadership, and integrity.
…and so much more!
