Rich tokarz
FounderAs a proud veteran, our founder understands firsthand the sacrifices made by those who serve. Through his successful real estate career, he has turned his passion for giving back into action by donating a portion of his earnings to support veterans, first responders, and their families. His vision for Heroes Helping Heroes NWI was built on the belief that no hero should face life's challenges alone. Through compassion, service, and community partnerships, he continues to lead the organization's mission of providing hope, assistance, and meaningful support to those who have dedicated their lives to serving others.

Rachel Nesbitt
Board MemberAs a former healthcare worker, I understand the demands, stress, and often under appreciated nature of the job. Serving on the board allows me to give back by supporting healthcare professionals, veterans, and other local heroes and ultimately helping ensure they feel valued, recognized, and appreciated for the lasting impact they make in our communities.
