Imprints of Honor

Imprints of Honor As students preserve veteran service stories, they are inspired to live a life of honor.

Imprints of Honor (formerly Veterans Heritage Project) connects students with veterans to honor veterans, preserve America's heritage, and develop future leaders. Veterans Heritage Project (VHP) provides an enhanced educational after-school program which partners with veterans to serve as historical primary sources and act as a vehicle for teaching and learning, to motivate and inspire students to

stay in school, and pursue their future. Recognized by the Library of Congress as national program model, and by the Arizona Department of Education as a Character Education Program, VHP's program is aligned with Arizona's College and Career Readiness Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies. The building of character and 21st century skills are critical in developing students’ abilities to succeed in a global environment and their ability to make informed and responsible decisions as our next generation of leaders.

When veterans share their experiences with students, they pass along lessons in character, leadership, and service that can last a lifetime.

Your legacy can help carry those lessons forward.

August is Make-A-Will Month—a good time to create or update your will. Consider including Imprints of Honor in your plans to ensure veterans can continue to inspire future generations.

A 2023 American Legion survey found that 70% of younger veterans want civilians to engage with them about their service, yet many feel invisible and disconnected. Tee It Up for the Troops' recent grant support for publishing and preserving veteran stories provides an avenue for veterans to share their experiences, process emotions, rebuild relationships, and find renewed purpose. Thank you for being such an amazing partner in honoring and caring for veterans.

In 2013, Marine Tim Day shared his story through Imprints of Honor, reflecting on how his military service had a "profound influence on his core values, personal traits, and character," instilling a deep appreciation for leadership, excellence, and mental toughness.

Today, Tim is helping ensure those same lessons inspire the next generation. Through a generous $100,000 grant from the Timothy T. Day Foundation, more students and veterans will have the opportunity to participate in Imprints of Honor, including expanded outreach to Tim's fellow Marines. Thank you!

If you're a veteran interested in sharing your story and inspiring future leaders, we'd love to hear from you. Learn more and join our interview interest list at www.imprintsofhonor.org/veterans.

"My understanding and awareness of civic responsibility has changed because I realized we as a society have a duty to preserve and honor the stories of those who served. We all have a responsibility to give back to these veterans like they gave for us."
