About Army vs Navy 2020

HOST YOUR OWN ARMY- NAVY VIRTUAL WATCH PARTY!!

When Army and Navy meet, there is no other game with deeper foundations or greater prestige. Now it's your turn to raise the bar and prove who has the greatest supporters, Army or Navy?

November 11th kicks off this year's Combined Arms 2020 Army vs. Navy Virtual Watch Party Challenge and we're challenging YOU to host your own watch party and to start your own fundraising team or join an existing team. 

On Wednesday, November 11th, Combined Arms kicks off the 2020 Army vs. Navy Virtual Watch Party Challenge with four weeks of challenges, competitions, and prizes! ​Each week, you can participate in 1) an Activity Challenge and 2) a Fundraising Challenge. Click here to view the full Contest Calendar.

  1. Activity Challenges are fun opportunities to catch the AvN game spirit. Each week you participate, you earn a raffle ticket. During our Combined Arms Halftime Show, one fundraiser wins a $100 Visa gift card (courtesy of our sponsors)! Don’t forget to share your activities on social media (use #armyvsnavy2020 and tag us!), and get others excited about getting involved. 
  2. Fundraising Challenges provide extra motivation to ask for donations and recruit new fundraisers to your team. Each week brings a new fundraising challenge and a new CAX merch giveaway at stake. The more support you get for CAX, the more opportunities to win BIG! Every Friday, tune in live on Facebook to hear who wins, and to learn about the next week’s challenges.               
The Day after the Army vs. Navy Game (December 13th), we’ll host a Facebook live and crown our top fundraisers, companies, and teams.  Bragging rights are awarded immediately. 


THE TOP THREE INDIVIDUAL FUNDRAISERS WILL EACH RECEIVE A GIFT CERTIFICATE FROM RUDY'S BBQ FOR DINNER FOR TEN (10)! A big thank you to Rudy's for their continued support Combined Arms and the Army Navy Watch Party!

Asking for friends’ and family support is easy. Once you register in our online platform, a fundraising page is created just for you, with built-in tools to ask for donations via social media, email, or text. The average gift is only $20, and every gift can make a BIG IMPACT in a veteran's life.

Invite fellow alumni, veterans, active duty members, fans, family and friends to join your team!

Why Participate?

THIS YEAR ALONE, OVER 200,000 SERVICE MEMBERS WILL TRANSITION OUT OF THE SERVICE. 

They are experienced leaders, skilled co-workers, adept business owners and supportive neighbors. Imagine the impact of these new arrivals: business and neighborhoods will grow, leaders will emerge, and economies will continue to thrive. Combined Arms is on a collaborative mission to welcome home even more veterans, connecting them to the camaraderie and opportunities, and setting them up to have a positive impact on the communities they return to. 

Your support and participation in the Combined Arms Army vs Navy Virtual Watch Party will raise awareness for our mission and the services and resources available to veterans via the online CAX portal, at the CAX transition Center, and through the Texas Veterans Network.

ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL DIRECTLY SUPPORT COMBINED ARMS ONGOING PROGRAMS ACCELERATING THE IMPACT OF VETERANS NATIONWIDE.

About the Cause

Combined Arms exists to accelerate the transition from military to civilian life. The faster veterans integrate into our community, the faster we are able to harness their passions and skills to make an impact. We are here to connect these veterans to resources so they can make “civilian” their next branch of service.  

Combined Arms is part of the recently launched Texas Veterans Network, an initiative that will make Texas the first state in the country to offer the veteran community an interconnected network of services to help them transition from military service to civilian life and workforce. Learn more about TVN HERE and the impact they are making in the lives of Texas veterans. 

Combined Arms is a one-stop resource for veterans in transition. Through a collaborative effort with our 70+ member organizations, we offer holistic support in a customized and efficient way. If you are a transitioning veteran checking out of your unit, CLICK HERE to check into ours.
