The DML Foundation Inc is a 501(c)(3), was originally launched with the intent of providing financial support to veterans, veterans groups, children in need, homeless Americans, recovering addicts, people who have lost their jobs or homes, frontline workers such as nurses, doctors, cops, 9/11 families, school safety projects, and families of first responders who die in the the line of duty. In 2023, we are tightening our focus on health, by helping people afford products and services that can help them improve overall wellness, and to provide wholesome, family-based reading materials to young children under age 13.
How the DML Foundation receives its funding
All funding is exclusively derived from our business endeavors. We do not accept donations from third parties.

To date, most of the donations we give are monetary based, but on occasion we donate materials such as blankets, food, health products, and clothing.
