Our Mission:  

​

Give2Those focuses on creating Recreational therapy programs designed to improve physical, mental and emotional well-being, and to reduce depression, stress and anxiety by empowering, encouraging, supporting, and reconnecting our Nation's Heroes {veterans, active duty, and first responders} and their families with themselves, each other, and their community. We do so by engaging Military Members, First Responder & Civilian Family Members of those who serve through (Vest Up 4 the Fallen) Operation (RPG) Resilience - Persistence - Grit:

​

In addition Give2Those steps in to provide assistance and support to our veterans, active duty, and first responders, and their families through A Hand Up 4 Our Heroes Program. 

​

Our Vision: 

​

Overall support is at the forefront. The brave response made by our military and first responders every single day is a reminder to Americans the invaluable service these courageous men and women provide to our communities, our nation and the world, now it's our turn to Give2Those who... Serve, Save, Protect and Sacrifice! 

​

Our Roots:

​

Give2Those was derived from the Stride and Ride Relay (Relay). Stride & Ride Relay occurs in October as a way to honor, remember and educate individuals about the importance of October 7, 2001, the day of the first deployment in the global war on terror and to keep alive the memories of all the individuals who lost their lives, not only on September 11, 2001, but in the subsequent years either due to 9/11 related illness, service related injuries, or the invisible wounds of war. 

​
