Til Valhalla Project

Til Valhalla Project is a Veteran-owned, mission-based company working to ensure no Fallen Military & First Responders go forgotten while reducing Veteran suicide. At least 20% of their net proceeds go toward funding life-saving therapy for struggling Veterans and anonymously delivering memorial plaques to the families of Fallen Heroes at no cost to them.

T.V.P. founder Korey Shaffer joined the Marines right out of high school and planned to make a career of it. But he got injured in training and again while serving in Afghanistan, which led to him being discharged early.

Korey was at his lowest point after getting out of the Marines. He felt he no longer had a purpose, was struggling to adapt to civilian life, and lost multiple men he served with to suicide. He understood their struggle because he also thought about ending his life.

One night, Korey was self-medicating and having a tough time dealing with the loss of a dear friend he served with. He made a memorial plaque to Honor his Hero. But when he sobered up in the morning, he realized it would be too painful to keep the plaque. He decided to give it to his friend’s mom.

She was so moved, she posted about it on Facebook. Others saw it and asked Korey to make plaques for their Fallen Heroes, and he was soon known as “the free plaque guy.”

Korey and his wife Tiffany started T.V.P. in 2016 to fund the construction of more memorial plaques and raise money toward reducing Veteran suicide. Since then, T.V.P. has Honored over 3,000 Heroes and donated over $1.3 million.

Etching a Hero’s name into a plaque ensures their story will live on for generations. Presenting that plaque to their family reminds them that we will never forget their Hero’s service and sacrifice.
