Dear Friends and Community,

I am reaching out to ask you to support the nonprofit organization, “The Keepers of the Mitten,” in its mission: “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.”

Our organization has partnered with the nonprofit “Let’s Walk it Out.” This organizations mission is to bring awareness to mental illness and suicide in relation to first responders, veterans and active military.

This cause is near and dear to my heart. Having experienced firsthand the effects of mental illness and suicide on the lives and families of people that I love dearly, this hits very close to home. I will be marching for them.

My daughter Trinity, and I will put our bodies on the line for this worthwhile cause from April 9 through April 18th 2026. We will participate in the 222 mile ruck march from Fayetteville, NC to Camp Lejeune and back. This March is meant to push the body physically in order to mimic the mental strain that our nations best sometimes suffer in silence. A life of service can leave its mark. Together we can impress on our heroes that they are not alone! So let’s walk it out!

We humbly ask for any assistance you can provide in helping us to reach our goal. Every contribution, no matter how small, will help “The Keepers of the Mitten” to fulfill our mission. Let’s come together and make a difference! God bless and thank you for your support!

Please feel free donate here and follow us on our travels, or visit our website at redmitten.org for more information and ways you can donate directly. Thank you.
