Located in Grand Rapids, MI, HAS HEART is a nonprofit organization founded by a U.S. Navy Veteran and a Designer in 2010. They aim to connect veterans and civilians through art and design, sharing impactful stories and creating meaningful designs. For over a decade, [HAS HEART] has been fostering collaborations between veterans and designers to bring these stories to life. Their signature project, the HERO[Series], pairs veterans with designers to craft designs that embody each veteran's unique story and message. These designs are then transformed into American-made products, allowing the community to support the veterans and spread awareness of their experiences. The organization's coffee shop offers a space to experience their mission firsthand with locally roasted coffee from Madcap Coffee. Having expanded their reach beyond Grand Rapids, [HAS HEART] embarked on a journey across the United States from 2017 to 2019 with their Fifty States project. With the goal of partnering a veteran with a designer in each state, they have successfully completed numerous projects, engaging veterans, designers, and the community in sharing and supporting these powerful stories. [HAS HEART] continues to strive towards visiting all 50 states by 2025, relying on support from individuals who believe in their mission. Generated from the website content
