My Event
PlaceholderMission & Vision
They crossed oceans, left families, and carried the weight of service so the rest of us never had to. And when they came home — or when they hung up the gear for the last time — too many of them faced their hardest battle alone, in silence, without the support they had more than earned. At the Donaide Foundation, we refuse to accept that.
Our mission has always been simple and urgent: no one fights alone. And for our military veterans and first responders, that promise is personal. We believe that the men and women who gave their mental, physical, and emotional health in service to this community deserve every resource, every treatment, every hand extended — not because it's charity, but because it's what's right. This event is our declaration that Fishers, Indiana, and the communities we call home, will show up for the people who showed up for all of us.
Our Programs
Do Good Together
The Donaide Foundation doesn't offer one answer to a complex problem — we offer a complete system of support built around the whole person.
Core Programs:
Our Peer Groups, veterans and first responders find their tribe: men and women who have walked the same path, carried the same invisible weight, and are committed to healing together in a space built on honesty, trust, and brotherhood. Our Mentorship Program pairs each individual with a guide who has lived their experience — someone who made it to the other side and is ready to walk alongside them every step of the way.
Our Health & Wellness Program addresses the physical foundation that mental resilience demands, combining fitness, nutrition, and recovery practices that restore both body and mind.
Through Financial Literacy, we remove one of the most pervasive and under-addressed stressors in the lives of transitioning veterans and first responders — because you cannot build a new life when financial anxiety is consuming you alive.
TMS Therapy for those living with treatment-resistant depression, chronic PTSD, and the neurological scars of service. TMS Therapy is a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that targets the brain at the neural level and delivers the kind of breakthrough that talk therapy and medication alone often cannot reach.
Fundraising
Every program we offer is powered by generosity — and we are asking for yours with a specific, urgent purpose. The centerpiece of this campaign is a $250,000 goal that will do two things: first, it will fund the acquisition of a TMS Therapy chair — a permanent, community-owned clinical asset that will deliver life-changing treatment to veterans and first responders in our region for years to come.
Second, it will establish a Financial Grant Fund to help cover the cost of treatment for the men and women in our community who need TMS most but cannot afford it — ensuring that access to breakthrough care is never determined by a bank account balance.
One chair. Countless lives changed. The math is simple: a single TMS chair can treat hundreds of patients per year. The grants we fund tonight will ensure that no veteran and no first responder ever sits in a waiting room, fills out paperwork, and is turned away because of cost. This is what $250,000 does. This is what you do — when you decide that the people who gave everything deserve exactly that in return.
