Why fundraise?
Since September 11th, 2001, 200,000+ veterans return to civilian life each year. Nearly half of returning veterans will find their transition to civilian life difficult (Pew Study 2019). Although many will transition smoothly, veterans and military families face chronic acute pain, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, and suicide. Now, more than two decades after 9/11, it’s more important than ever to enable veterans to find peace, meaning, and purpose after their military service. Many service members are now exiting the military after 20-year careers, having spent all of their adulthood in the service during a time of war. Their new critical mission is to find peace and meaning in an environment that is completely unknown to them. At Warriors & Quiet Waters, we guide Warriors and their loved ones to thrive.
Many service members will be dealing with the effects of their service for the rest of their lives. We believe that our support should be no less enduring.
So many answered the call to defend our country. Now, it’s time for our community to commit to supporting veterans.
