Serving Veterans & First Responders:

The Camp4Heroes mission is to create a place of tranquility, relaxation, learning, and rebuilding for our veterans and first responders; a retreat for life, love, and respect to promote healing. At Camp4Heroes, we understand the difficulties of readjusting to civilian life after leading and leaving a life of service to our country. Camp4Heroes is a place for our heroes to re-purpose their lives in any way that they choose at our beautiful and serene compound, by enjoying various activities, learning new trades, and engaging in fellowship with others who understand and want to help with the difficulties and hardships of readjusting to civilian life.

Our goal is to provide support for the Soldiers and Marines while they are at Walter Reed Army Medical Center and then to further assist them when they transition either back to duty or back to civilian life. We are patriotic citizens committed to serving our wounded, injured and ill combat veterans. We support Veterans and their families by building relationships and identifying and supporting immediate needs and interests. We are dedicated to promoting public awareness f the many sacrifices made by our armed forces. www.operationsecondchance.org

Sarasota Manatee Association for Riding Therapy (SMART) is providing monthly Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) workshops for veterans from Bay Pines VA. The Warriors in Transition program was developed by Terry Murray (veteran and entrepreneur) to assist both active duty military and recent veterans as they navigate the challenges of repeated deployment cycles, as well as their eventual transition back to civilian life. The monthly workshop is aimed at empowering veterans, encouraging them to fully leverage the skills and attribute they developed during their service as they transition back to civilian life and the workforce. http://smartriders.org/programs/horse-power-for-veterans/

Goodwill Manasota has created a Veterans Task Force. Mission is to: “Provide a leadership role in addressing strategic issues and providing community-supported solutions facing veterans and their families on employment and transitioning into civilian life.” The Veterans Task Force sent a survey to numerous organizations that focus on veteran’s issues, as well as individual veterans and asked them to provide input as to the main issue facing veterans – from their perspectives. For more information, please call us at 941.355.2721 ext. 451. http://www.experiencegoodwill.org/

The Naval Special Warfare Community puts their lives on the line every single day. There are 30,000 suicides reported every year in the United States. Veterans account for roughly 20% of these victims. 30% of these

Veterans are also struggling with traumatic brain injuries (TBI) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). There are programs to help but they just don’t reach people quickly enough to make a difference.

The Brian Bill Foundation provides much needed Therapeutic Retreats for NSW/SOF Warriors struggling with Combat Post Traumatic Stress, TBI and Chronic Pain and follow up support. www.brianbillfoundation.org

Our mission is to rescue dogs and cats from shelters that may otherwise be euthanized due to time limitations, illness, injuries or lack of socialization and training. We are dedicated to educating the public about the pet overpopulation crisis, the importance of spaying/neutering and responsible pet ownership. In order to be most effective, Pet Pal Animal Shelter concentrates our attention and resources on one segment of the animal problem; those in shelters and facing euthanasia. Therefore, the shelter does not accept strays. Pet Pal Animal Shelter invests hundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars rehabilitating the animals we rescue.

Healing hearts through the power of Music. We began with a very simple mission: provide guitars to Veterans and actively serving military members and their families so that they may integrate music into their recovery. HOWEVER, we have grown to provide a lot more than just guitars.
