Founders Brigade
Recognizing those who go above and beyond to further our mission
The Founders Brigade is an exclusive group of individuals and families who pledge $5,000 per year for 2 years to provide the working capital to advance Carry The Load’s mission of preserving the sanctity of Memorial Day through community gatherings and storytelling. Our goal is to secure 100 members, resulting in a more than $1,000,000 combined commitment.
The funds enable Carry The Load to support its three programs of Awareness, Continuum of Care, and Education to connect Americans to the sacrifices made daily by our military, veterans, first responders, and their families.
As a member of the Founders Brigade, you will receive a commemorative lapel pin and challenge coin as well as recognition on Carry The Load’s website and annual Impact report. In addition, you will receive a VIP invitation to our annual Kick-Off party event plus any of the year-round events.
