Your Donation, Their Dreams

Every year, 200,000 servicemembers separate from active duty and begin their life after the uniform as veterans. Of those, new veterans, roughly a quarter dream of opening a business.  Unfortunately, only a fraction of them ever chase that dream. Veterans face unique barriers to entrepreneurship. Their time spent in the military makes it less likely they have the access to local networks, capital, and contacts to get their business up and running.

Bunker Labs is here to support all our nation’s veterans interested in chasing their entrepreneurial dreams. Our programs build community that creates the necessary networks and support systems to launch and grow a small business with like-minded entrepreneurs. We also create opportunities that help close that capital access gap and introduce our veterans to key contacts.

And Bunker Labs does it all without charging our program participants, and without taking any equity stake in their ventures. We’ve helped over 3,500 veteran entrepreneurs at Bunker Labs, and we have a goal of assisting 30,000 transition veterans who are interested in entrepreneurship by 2030. To stay on mission, we need your help. Private donations are a major pillar of keeping Bunker Labs funded and reaching as many new and emerging veteran entrepreneurs as possible.

Transforming Lives, One Veteran at a Time

We’ve talked with some of our program participants, and asked them how Bunker Labs helped them find their very best life after the uniform, fulfilling their American Dream. Listen to their stories, and help us continue to cultivate the next great generation of veteran entrepreneurs with a donation today.
