Anheuser-Busch shares a tremendous sense of pride and respect for our service men and women, especially for the more than 1,500 veterans across the country who are current employees.
Throughout Anheuser-Busch’s history, more than 5,500 of our employees have served, including in World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom, and other military campaigns. We know there are never enough ways to thank our veterans and troops – that is why we are constantly striving to honor our heroes through action.
With our own military family history, we deeply respect the commitment and sacrifices of veterans’ and current troops’ families. Since 2011, Anheuser-Busch and its partners have donated over 18million dollars to Folds of Honor, funding over 3,600 scholarships for military families across the country.
In May 2018, Anheuser-Busch unveiled a special addition to Budweiser’s Reserve Collection – Budweiser Freedom Reserve Red Lager. Brewed by our own veteran employees, this beer built on Budweiser’s long-standing support for American military veterans with a portion of the summer 2018 proceeds benefiting the Folds of Honor Foundation.

In the spring of 2019, the Anheuser-Busch Foundation also expanded its longstanding partnership with the American Red Cross by donating $500,000 to the Service to the Armed Forces Giving Program (SAFGP), which helps provide vital services for more than 2 million members of the military, veterans, and their families.
Through this donation to the Service to the Armed Forces Giving Program, the largest financial gift by a corporate partner to the program to date, we are excited to continue expanding our work with the American Red Cross to directly support our men and women in uniform.
The American Red Cross Service to Armed Forces Program serves military personnel and veterans every day throughout the year by providing 24/7 global emergency communication services and support in health care facilities across the country. The Anheuser-Busch Foundation is proud to help play a small part in the American Red Cross’ efforts to give back to our servicemen and women who give so much to protect our country and communities.
Saying thanks through actions to honor our service members is what gives us purpose beyond brewing.
