Impact
During this 22km ruck, participants will carry 22lbs of food or 22 items of food in their rucksacks, symbolizing our commitment to giving back to the community. The donated food will be distributed to local veteran programs and food shelters, making a tangible impact on those in need.
This event aims to raise funds for EHP Performance, supporting their mission to provide adaptive workout equipment for individuals with extremity disabilities. Additionally, if we surpass our fundraising goals, we will establish a grant or scholarship fund to provide free gym memberships for veterans in need of financial assistance.
The Ruck to Remember exceeded all expectations, and we couldn't have done it without our incredible supporters. Together, we completed a challenging 22k ruck, carrying 22 pounds each, symbolizing the 22 veterans who face the daily battle of suicide.
But the impact doesn't stop there! During this extraordinary event, we raised funds, enabling us to provide adaptive equipment and gym scholarships to our deserving disabled veterans.
Additionally, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude for your generosity, as hundreds of pounds of food were donated. These contributions will make a real difference in the lives of those in need. Thank you for being part of this incredible journey to honor our heroes and make a positive change in our community.
