Boots for Warriors Foundation
Public records show a registered, tax-exempt organization in good standing.
What it says it does
Boots For Warriors is Hand Crafting, Custom Fit Thank Yous in the form of Cowboy Boots for our Nations wounded war fighters. For many, wearing cowboy boots is a way of life. Thousands fought our Freedom and returned from combat with lower extremity impairments making it difficult to wear off-the-shelf footwear. Its out of immense appreciation for their sacrifice, that Boots For Warriors partners with Olsen-Stelzer Boot Company to hand-craft, and donate, custom fit boots for these men and women. Service members are often painted with a broad brush but B4W recognizes that, just as No two pair of boots are alike, Veterans are all unique. Their personalized boots, designed to accomodate foot/leg injuries, are worn and displayed with pride from the moment they're presented.

Governance
This organization files the short tax form, which does not ask about boards, policies or audits. That is normal for a small charity and is not a mark against it.
