Our Mission
Honoring Service, RECONNECTING Families
In Honor of Our Troops (IHOOT) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation committed to helping military families reconnect and heal. Through the Vacations for Vets Program, we offer eligible Active-Duty Military Personnel, Veterans, and DoD personnel the opportunity to request destinations worldwide, donated by our resort partners—a meaningful gift of gratitude for their service.
IHOOT does not own resorts, and it is not a travel agency that books reservations. Instead, we serve as a bridge between generous donors, resort partners, and the heroes who have served our nation.
