How You Joined in for Military Appreciation Month
What a MAY! Military Appreciation Month may be over but we are still wowed by how YOU rallied your communities, coworkers and friends to show gratitude to all who serve(d)!
From a community-wide ruck or daily runs in Texas, pushup challenges in California, to wearing YOU MATTER tees in New York and Illinois or wrapping up needs for Veterans and active duty service members to be delivered across the country, YOU laced up and stepped up for those who protect and defend our freedoms.
Every effort of appreciation – through spreading awareness or making a donation – creates a positive ripple effect that shows Veterans and military families what they often need to be reminded…that their life matters, their service matters and that there are grateful Americans who stand proudly, laced up, in gratitude alongside them.
Veterans like Andy who recently shared, “Before Boot Campaign, my whole world was falling apart. A rocky marriage, job termination, feeling betrayed – not to mention all the mental strain on top of all the financial fallout from it all. In contrast, now my family and I are thriving. Before, I couldn’t see myself in the place I’m in now, but I am grateful I lived long enough to see it come to pass.”
We’re grateful for Andy’s service and the trust he’s placed in our team to craft and deliver an individualized pipeline of care.
