Monthly Giving Funded the Veteran PTSD Recovery That Brought Her Back.

Six months. A gym, a nutrition coach, and a Battle Buddy who had been where he was. Today she mentors the next Warrior Class through their recovery. Monthly donors funded every week of it.

“The workout was the door. My Battle Buddy was the reason I walked back through it.”

Why monthly
Recovery Runs Six Months. Monthly Giving Funds Veteran PTSD Recovery Without Gaps.

A one-time gift funds a moment. A monthly gift funds a program that cannot pause. Every Warrior Class runs a full six months of coaching, gym access, nutrition support, and a Battle Buddy. For that reason, recurring gifts let us say yes to a veteran on the phone before the funding for their class is fully raised.

Funding we can count on

Recurring gifts let us plan classes, staff, and gym partnerships months ahead instead of quarter to quarter.
