Mission
Our organization brings combat wounded veterans and patriotic donors together so that we can help promote their recovery as they spilled their blood in the name of our nations freedom. Our sole purpose is to raise funds for programs executed by the Military Order of the Purple Heart. Our goal is to help make sure their programs receive robust support so that more Purple Heart recipients and their families can be provided the necessary assistance. We represent the thousands of servicemen and women who were wounded actively defending our country in times of war. Their voices must be heard and their sacrifices should be known. We work tirelessly to ensure that these patriots are cared for on their paths to recovery. The MOPH Fund is to provide essential assistance to America's Veterans and their Families by directly supporting the programs and services of the Military Order of the Purple Heart.

Who the money went to
Grants this organization reported paying: Schedule I Part II of the Form 990, or the grants-paid list on the 990-PF. Open a year for every recipient. Recipients link to their own page when the grant names an EIN we have (990-PF grants list no EIN, so those link only on an exact, unique name and state). Grants to individuals are counted; their names are not shown.
2025 · 4 grants to organizations · $187K
Listed grants add up to $187,400; the return's “grants paid” expense line says $190,752. Returns can differ here (grants paid vs. accrued, items listed elsewhere); check the filing.
2024 · 1 grant to organizations · $13K
Listed grants add up to $13,171; the return's “grants paid” expense line says $15,151. Returns can differ here (grants paid vs. accrued, items listed elsewhere); check the filing.

Who gave
Contributor names are not public for this form type.
Public charities filing Form 990 or 990-EZ report large donors on Schedule B, but the IRS withholds their names and addresses from public copies. Private foundations (990-PF) are different: their contributors are public.
Finances
Newest first. Each filing: its name on one row, its figures on the row beneath. Greyed filings are superseded by a later return for the same period and are left out everywhere else on this page.

Where the money went
Every expense line on each return, biggest first: Form 990 Part IX (with its program, management and fundraising columns), 990-EZ Part I, or 990-PF Part I. Event marks lines the organization itself describes as events. “Events” in each summary adds those lines, conferences and meetings, and the direct costs of fundraising events. Unusual is not the same as improper. Many of these patterns have ordinary explanations. Check the filing.
