Our Mission
At Bert's Salute to America Foundation, we strive to empower, educate and improve the health and standard of living for those who save the lives of others.
Upcoming Events
Bert's Chrome & Courage Ride Resource Fair
If you are interested in being a sponsor, hit the link below to see all of our tiers. Every dollar donated becomes a lifeline for local veterans and first responders who have spent their lives protecting others, yet now find themselves struggling with mental health challenges, housing insecurity, and profound isolation.
Your support helps fund small, trusted community programs that offer more than services... they offer understanding, connection, and hope. We strive to meet people where they are, restoring dignity, rebuilding stability, and reminding those who served that they are not forgotten and they are not alone. We serve those who have served.

Bert's Newest Paver Project
These pavers offer a unique opportunity to honor loved ones, celebrate special occasions, or convey messages in Pinellas County. The personalized pavers will complete Bert’s vision of paying tribute to the military men and women who have served and continue to protect our freedom.
