Every day, 22 veteran lives are lost to suicide. Our mission is to end this terrible statistic! Victory Gym VHC was formed by disabled veterans. We continue to be operated by both veteran and civilian volunteers. We have the unique ability to address the specific needs of combat veterans through firsthand knowledge. Victory Gym VHC offers a community where members “speak the same language”, share similar experiences, and can once again feel camaraderie and a sense of importance.

We are entirely staffed by volunteers (including management), all of our equipment has been donated, and every penny goes toward furthering our mission.
