IAVA Partners

Bring veterans, supporters, policymakers, and community leaders together through high-impact events that celebrate service and inspire action. From our annual Heroes Gala to more intimate gatherings like IAVA Salutes, event sponsorship creates meaningful opportunities for connection, recognition, and engagement while helping IAVA amplify the voices and experiences of post-9/11 veterans nationwide.

Invest directly in the next generation of veteran leaders. Program sponsors help power initiatives like The Cavalry and the Zach McIlwain Leadership Fellowships, providing mentorship, leadership development, advocacy training, and peer support that equip veterans to lead in their communities, workplaces, and across the country. Your support creates lasting impact long after a program concludes.

Help veterans shape the policies that affect their lives. Advocacy partners make it possible for IAVA members to participate in congressional testimony, national veteran convenings, policy briefings, and grassroots advocacy campaigns. By supporting this work, you help ensure that the perspectives of post-9/11 veterans are heard where decisions are made and that their priorities remain at the forefront of national conversations.

Create a unique collaboration aligned with your organization's goals and values. Whether it's a public awareness campaign, educational initiative, research project, or creative partnership like our work with the documentary American Solitaire, custom partnerships help bring critical veteran issues into the national spotlight. Together, we can design innovative opportunities that drive impact, engage audiences, and advance solutions for the veteran community.
