Stop Suicide.
Restore Lives.

Every day, 44 veterans lose their battle at home. HBOT4Heroes provides life-saving Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy to veterans suffering from traumatic brain injury and PTSD — giving them a second chance at life.

The Hidden Crisis: Why 44 Matters

According to Operation Deep Dive™ — the most comprehensive study of its kind — the true number of veterans lost to suicide each day is far higher than officially reported.

When accounting for overdose, accidental, and undetermined self-injury deaths, the real toll rises to 44 lives lost every single day — more than double the VA’s figures.

Behind every number is a name, a story, and a hero who deserves a chance to heal. These are fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters — and our mission is to ensure their stories don’t end there.

Why Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy?

HBOT floods the brain with oxygen in a pressurized environment, stimulating healing at the cellular level. For veterans with TBI and PTSD, this therapy can restore function, improve mood, and save lives.

Help Us Fund the Next Veteran’s Treatment

We are primarily funded by private donations and corporate sponsors. Each treatment series costs approximately $6,500 per veteran. Whether you donate the cost of a single dive or an entire treatment course, your support directly saves lives.
