We Advance Together

Satellite Beach, FL   |  www.eternalendurance.com

Mission

Leverage innovative interventions in Mental Health, Physical Fitness, & Community Building in order to reduce the Suicide Rate among American Vets to ZERO.

Notes from the nonprofit

We continue to raise awareness, assess need, pilot a few programs, and work on fundraising. We have not yet raised enough money to execute the thrust of our vision but we are moving steadily in that direction. The better we can become at fundraising, the sooner our organization will be able to make a substantial dent in the veteran suicide crisis in communities across the United States. We still envision 1000 FOBs (“Forward Operating Bases” that serve as brick and mortar veteran community incubators) in towns and cities across the US this decade.
