About The Killian Association

The Killian Association was founded in 2024 by a group of U.S. Special Operations veterans who shared a deep commitment to serving those in need, both at home and abroad. The Killian Association is driven by a singular mission: to provide comprehensive support to veterans and communities in need, and to combat some of the world’s most pressing humanitarian crises.

As a non-profit organization based in both the U.S. and Guatemala, with offices in San Antonio, Texas, and Guatemala City, Guatemala, we focus on core areas of impact:

1. Veteran Services & Support – We offer a range of services tailored to meet the unique needs of veterans, including mental health support, career transition assistance, two veteran and spouse retreats per year in Guatemala, and connections to resources that promote overall well-being. We aim to ensure that those who served their country receive the respect, care, and opportunities they deserve after their service.
    
2. Humanitarian Aid – The Killian Association works tirelessly to provide vital resources, including food, clean water, medical assistance, and emergency relief, to underserved communities in South and Central America. Our goal is to alleviate suffering and foster sustainable development in areas impacted by poverty, natural disasters, and lack of access to basic services.
    
3. Crisis Response – We are committed to swift, organized responses to crises such as natural disasters, political unrest, and other emergencies. Our military and law enforcement veteran-led teams bring a wealth of experience in crisis management.
    
4. Anti-Child Trafficking – One of our most urgent priorities is the fight against child trafficking in the region. The Killian Association partners with local governments, NGOs, and international organizations to prevent the exploitation of vulnerable children and provide support to survivors. Through awareness campaigns, investigations, and direct intervention, we aim to break the chains of human trafficking and offer hope to children who need it the most.
    

The Killian Association’s work is powered by the values of integrity, duty, and service that our founders learned during their time in the military and law enforcement. We stand united with the communities we serve and are steadfast in our commitment to making a lasting, positive impact. Together, we are creating a future where veterans, families, and communities thrive, free from the horrors of exploitation and hardship. Join us in this mission. Together, we can make a difference.
