Stop Suicide & Restore Lives with
Hyperbaric Oxygen
Every day, 44 veterans lose their battle at home.
You can help us change that.
According to Operation Deep Dive™ — the most comprehensive study of its kind on suicide and self-injury mortality among former service members — the true number of veterans lost each day is far higher than what’s officially reported by the VA.
At HBOT4Heroes, we provide access to Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) — a treatment proven to help veterans with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and post-traumatic stress (PTS) heal from the invisible wounds of war.
Our mission: Stop suicide and restore lives through proven, life-saving care.
Why 44 matters
Behind every number is a name, a story, and a hero who deserves a chance to heal.
Operation Deep Dive™ found that when accounting for overdose, accidental, and undetermined self-injury deaths, the real toll rises to 44 lives lost every day — more than double the figure reported by the VA.
These are fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters — and our mission is to ensure their stories don’t end there.
