Welcome To Tributary Foundation
MISSION
We exist to bridge systemic gaps faced by underserved veteran populations through community-driven, trauma-informed programs that expand access to whole-person care. Our work empowers participants to rebuild regulation, stability, connection, and purpose, strengthening the foundations for lasting personal and community well-being.
Who We Are…
Founded in 2025, the Tributary Foundation is a Central Oregon–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to supporting veterans through community-driven programs that build connection, purpose, and long-term stability.
Tributary operates as a living ecosystem of service, bringing veterans together through shared experiences, outdoor engagement, and collaborative initiatives that strengthen belonging and resilience. Our program branches create clear pathways for participation, leadership, and measurable community impact.
At Tributary, every act of support flows through a shared current—anchored in integrity, guided by purpose, and sustained by meaningful outcomes that honor veterans through action and collaboration.
Why We Exist
Despite $4.3 trillion in annual healthcare spending, millions remain trapped in untreated pain, trauma, and systemic denial. We are committed to addressing the veteran suicide crisis, empowering physicians to provide evidence-based care for their patients post-denial, allowing the community to become a hero in someone else’s healing journey. One Hero at a time, we unite all communities to stand with us for those who need it most. Whether you are a combat veteran suffering from PTSD, a patient searching for hope or a community member looking for purpose-driven impact. At Tributary Foundation… Every Tributary of Impact Leads to Purpose.
