OUR STORY
WALK FOR WARRIORS is in it's third year of walking to raise funds to support Operation Injured Soldiers(OIS) to fight veteran suicide and provide much needed mental health resources to our veterans. OIS is a tax exempt 501c3 nonprofit organization founded in 2005. They provide recreational opportunities (free of charge) to wounded military veterans of all eras as a thank you for their service.
The events provided aid in the recovery from physical and emotional injuries sustained during conflict deployments and service to our country.
The significance of the 30 Mile Army Ultra Challenge represents the 20 soldiers we lose to suicide each day plus the 10's of thousands of people effected by those tragedies.
