Our commitment to community-driven impact is embodied in RADAR, our online resource that puts the spotlight on organizations doing commendable work for veterans and military communities in your local area. We believe that the true heroes are those on the ground, working tirelessly to make a difference. RADAR is our way of acknowledging and celebrating these organizations, bringing them into the spotlight so that their efforts are recognized and supported.

Veterans Collaborative takes immense pride in playing our small role in bringing forward this incredible story. By supporting Brothers and Veterans, we contribute to a narrative that goes beyond the screen—a story that inspires, educates, and fosters a deeper understanding of the sacrifices made by our service members and Veterans. We hope that our community sees itself in this compelling portrait and tale of Army Rugby.

We contemplate access in terms of who possesses it, who lacks it, and how we can open the floodgates every single day. We believe plain and simple access is the greatest challenge facing our Veteran and Service Members, surpassing any other, no matter how you slice it. For today’s chat, and all in the name of access for Veterans, service members, and their families, we will dive into the exciting world of fiscal sponsorship and our Ventures.

Today is a day to give thanks, and I find myself in a reflective mood this morning while my turkey smokes and sweet potato souffle crisps-- pondering the meaning of true gratitude. For some it is about turkey, pecan pie, and office closures—there’s nothing wrong with that, but for others it's different. Maybe it’s a time to delve into the depths of gratitude or acknowledge the incredible journeys and struggles we've all faced.

Let us carry the torch forward by actively participating in the collective effort to support mental health awareness, reduce stigma, and ensure that no Veteran or military member fights their battles alone.
