The Vikings are Coming!


Founded in 1974 and celebrating 50 years in 2024, the 200+ member Viking organization places considerable emphasis on its ability to provide financial support to requests that fall within the Viking’s Mission Statement; that is, helping those with medically-related needs.

Viking Charities, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization and is chartered as a 509(a)2 public charity, so your contributions are tax deductible to the fullest extent of the law. All operating expenses are covered by the Vikings, so 100% of your gift reaches a person in need.
