We believe in a family-focused approach combined with the healing power of nature; to empower children and their families to overcome challenges associated with growing up in conflict zones through experiential resiliency programs, leadership building, and long-term investment in their wellbeing.
Mountain Seed Foundation (MSF) is a 501c(3) non-profit organization that provides healing to children and families from war-torn countries. We accomplish this through a variety of experiential programs to include: mountain-based healing programs, art, and outdoor therapy.
Mountain Seed supports Ukrainian families through our experiential resiliency programs, humanitarian relief, support for families of fallen soldiers, and our long-term therapeutic and leadership programs.
Mountain Seed partners with local organizations to raise money for our Long Term Outdoor Healing Programs and Refugee Housing.

Mountain Seed Foundation was established in 2021 with an aim to help children and their families caught in the war zones of Europe, particularly in Ukraine. Veteran-led, they understand the traumas youth will endure as a result of war and associated struggles. Mountain-based camps provide an atmosphere carefully designed to heal through art, therapy, skill-building, and mentoring from a team of professionals who volunteer their time.
Mountain Seed Foundation, a Virginia-based organization founded by an American veteran which works to heal children and families from war-torn countries like Ukraine, coordinated a healing and wellness retreat for 17 Ukrainian children.
