Mission Statement
"Even in great adversity
there is hope"
– Jeff Key
The Mehadi Foundation believes that the best way to support our veterans of the global war on terror is to offer them the chance to take an active role in their own healing and the healing of others. This requires building a community of veterans with the leadership, experience, and skills to train and empower other veterans.
Our goal is threefold:
- To develop and promote a workshop series that utilizes art, storytelling, and creativity as a healing tool;
- To provide veterans with the necessary tools to live in better relationship to their experiences in the military and at war;
- To facilitate healing through service by providing veterans the opportunity to help Iraqi and Afghan civilians rebuild their community.
