The Taylor Foundation Vision
The Taylor Foundation was established to generate funds and awareness for local non-profit organizations that support and uplift former and current members of the armed forces as well as first responders who are suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, otherwise known as PTSD. By collaborating with local and regional nonprofits, we seek to build a network of assistance for all veterans and first responders who may be experiencing or have experienced PTSD so that they may find the community and support they need to overcome these challenges in their own communities.
"During my career, I’ve been privileged to have many veterans and people in emergency service support me, telling me how much my music has helped them with everything they’ve had to endure- from combat to stress on the job to the inevitable repercussions that come from PTSD. Now, it’s my turn to give back as much as I can to them"
- Corey Taylor
Our Mission
Throughout 2023, we will collaborate with carefully chosen nonprofit organizations that are actively helping those who are suffering from PTSD in relevant and original ways. Your contribution will be shared between The Taylor Foundation's initiatives and the charity chosen in each city. Every charity collaboration is unique, based on the needs and interests of our non-profit partners To date, Corey has made motivational speeches, filmed PSAs, taken part in therapeutic art courses, worked with veteran assistance dogs, played the acoustic guitar during therapy sessions, or simply hung out with our heroes and listened to their stories and experiences.
Our Focus
We help veterans and first responders find connection and healing, by partnering with carefully selected local organizations in order to create a community and network for those in need of support.
Veterans
At one point in their lives, veterans and current service members signed a blank check made payable to their country for an amount up to and including their life. Many of these men and women have fought in or supported battles for their nation. Today the battle rages on yet it's not in some far away desert, but in the minds of those who sacrificed on our behalf. The Taylor Foundation recognizes their sacrifices and wants to help these men and women win the war within.
First Responders
Firefighters, Paramedics, and Police Officers are the every day heroes of their communities and our nation. These men and women put their lives on the line day in and day out and are the thin line keeping our society between peacefulness and chaos. Our first responders bear the weight of experiencing tragedy on our behalf and need a support system to see them through the dark times. The Taylor Foundation understands this need and wants to create and community that meets them where they are.
