Boot Campaign

Boot Campaign
Following his father’s example of service, when Mark decided to lace up his boots and join the military to focus on combat medicine. His time serving in Afghanistan exposed him to the realities of combat, leading him into a pattern of internalizing his emotions, strained relationships, burnout and, ultimately, an attempt to take his own life. At his lowest point, Mark knew he needed to seek professional help. A friend made the introduction to Boot Campaign and his healing journey began. Mark shares that his experience through the Health & Wellness Program “set the tone for the rest of my life.” The individualized approach to understanding and treating his mental, physical and emotional wounds is why he is living a full, happy and healthy life today. With your support, more Veterans like Mark will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve. Please consider a one-time donation or join our nationwide network of recurring donors making a difference in the lives of our nation's Veterans and military families by visiting donate.bootcampaign.org.

As a medevac helicopter pilot, Bill’s job in the U.S. Army felt like a “double-edged sword.” Each rescue mission meant someone else was suffering, leading to an imbalance of emotions - from highly gratifying to extremely stressful, especially when lives were lost. Bill retired following a helicopter crash that injured both his brain and body. With more time on his hands in retirement, Bill experienced intrusive thoughts and began struggling with chronic pain in a way that affected his life and relationships. Our Boot Campaign Health & Wellness team created a holistic care plan just for him. With your support, more Veterans like Bill will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve.

Ben signed up for service to become the man he knew he needed to be for his son. While on a reconnaissance mission, he and his team were in an accident that severely injured both his brain and his body. The mental and physical damage took a toll on Ben and, later, led to symptoms he’d never experienced before such as headaches, anger and memory loss. Boot Campaign’s customized-care methodology through its Health & Wellness Program fosters a culture of healing and lifelong habits that support whole person mental wellness, cognitive health and physical fitness - just like what Ben needed to heal. With your support, more Veterans like Ben will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve.

When Bobby was first introduced to demolitions in the U.S. Army, he and his teammates thought the blast waves felt “cool.” Even when he started noticing mental and physical effects that the explosive charges had made on his body - from headaches to unexplained anger and irritability - he would put on his “clown face” to hide from his symptoms. Bobby’s individualized care plan through Boot Campaign’s Health & Wellness Program was tailored to his needs and symptoms, and it's why he shares that he is still here today. With your support, more Veterans like Bobby will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve.

Steve needed purpose and structure, and he found them both in his 30-year career with the U.S. Marine Corps. He deployed many times as an Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Technician, but when Steve retired and his life slowed down, he began to feel the weight of his experiences. From grief over lost teammates to unprocessed trauma, that load became too much to carry on his own. Steve reached out to Boot Campaign, worked through his individualized care plan and now shares how he is able to see a clear future ahead of him. With your support, more Veterans like Steve will get the tools and treatment they need and so deserve.

We couldn’t fulfill thousands of needs and wishes each year through our Seasons of Service Program without the help of individual and corporate volunteers, like our friends at Bob Moore Construction.  Led by CEO Ed McGuire, the family-owned construction company has been involved for more than five years to donate and wrap presents at our warehouse in Grapevine, Texas. In fact, Ed and his team have committed to making our volunteer efforts a part of his company’s way of giving back to Veterans and military families each year.  Hear more from Ed on why volunteering is so important to his organization, what his takeaways are from an afternoon of wrapping at our warehouse and how you can join in. To learn more about volunteering or donating items for our Seasons of Service Program, visit bootcampaign.org/seasonsofservice.
