About this event

Our Mission:

To bring awareness to veterans’ suicide and various mental health issues by approaching the issue with a hands-on approach; we lead by example

Our Vision:

We look to bring our veteran community together by offering opportunities and events to network and relay useful information that may not be commonly known.

Through various in-person events, we can share information to the veterans that are unaware of opportunities in their area.

We will create an opportunity that organizations can funnel their information through while operating as a trusted source for the veteran community to receive the available assistance.

Our Core Values:

1. The military veterans’ wellbeing within our community

2. We continue with the responsibility of having each other in dire times

3. We will create a trusting environment that veterans are able to maintain their trust within

4. We will continue as a military “family” through humor, camaraderie, team morale, and a sense of loyalty that only few have the honor of sharing

About Our Event:

The number 22 is a symbolic number within the veteran community. There are approximately 22 veterans per day that lose the war with their mental health issues; therefore, participants will hike 22K, while carrying roughly 22kg (50lbs) on their backs, in honor of the roughly 22 those U.S. veterans. this event IS the awareness needed to bring veterans together in a spirit of camaraderie and support, creates lasting bonds, and improves mental health and well-being.
