Help a Warrior with Your Donation (At this time we're looking or Brigade Sponsors.)
This year we're supporting the Shadow Warriors Project, a foundation created by Mark Geist, a private security contractor, who was injured saving American lives in 2012. This one-of-a-kind charity is dedicated to the support of private military security contractors, conducting paramilitary security operations in some of the world’s most dangerous areas. Although the private security contractor has served in the military he is considered a civilian and does not receive the same support offered to injured active military or veterans.
Mark's experience in Benghazi is documented in the book and movie titled 13 Hours.
In 2022, together we raised and donated $55,000 to Shepherd's Men, an organization dedicated to the life-saving program SHARE Military Initiative. Thank you for sharing the burden and lifting up warriors in need.
