Mission

The Congressional Medal of Honor Society is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Medal of Honor, inspiring America to live the values the Medal represents, and supporting Recipients. The Internal Revenue Service letter dated June 29, 1999, recognized the Society as a public charity (and not as a private foundation) under Internal Revenue Code section 509(a)1 and 170(b)(1)(a) (vi). The name of this nonprofit charitable organization is the Congressional Medal of Honor Society of the United States of America. The Congressional Medal of Honor Society of the United States of America is perhaps the "most exclusive organization" in our Country...it is certainly one of the most unique. No amount of money, power or influence can buy one's rite of passage to this exclusive circle, and unlike almost any other organization, this group's members hope that there will be no more inductees. Beyond this attitude towards recruitment, about all they have in common.

Programs

3 programs

Character Development Program: The Medal of Honor Character Development Program teaches courage, commitment, integrity, sacrifice, citizenship, and patriotism to students through lessons grounded in cross-curricular academics and developed by teachers for teachers. Based on the non-fiction stories of medal of honor recipients and citizen honors awardees, the lessons are appropriate in all school and homeschool settings as well as extra-curricular activities. Both the middle/high school, elementary school materials, and an abundance of supporting resources are available online and free of charge, for anyone who wishes to use them.

Expenses: $979K

Education Assistance: The Society provides financial assistance to the children of Medal of Honor Recipients pursuing education or training at accredited institutions, including trade and technical schools, colleges, and universities. This support fosters leadership development, ethical reasoning, cultural awareness, teamwork, and meaningful connections with mentors and peers.
