Who we are

When veterans transition out of military service, many are left asking: “What’s next?”


We created Vets to Drones to answer that question with opportunity, training, and a clear path forward.

Inspired into action

Since our founding in February 1, 2023, our organization has supported thousands of veterans as they navigate life after service, offering not just skills, but a community.
