Who & Why
According to reports, the rates for the active-duty individual services per 100,000 were 23 for the Army, 23.1 for the Marine Corps, 14.4 for the Air Force and 13.4 for the Navy.
The Veterans Administration statistics confirm that 22 veterans die by suicide every day on American soil.
The total number of those losing their battle grows larger with each day outreach and treatments are not able to be done.

Salutes from our SAVES
“What started out as a Marine wanting to take a walk…”
SAVE22 showed me that by listening we can speak volumes to those in need. It has also unlocked a gift and passion i did not know I had.
SAVE22 provided me purpose when I thought I had none.
SAVE22 gave me the mission and the purpose to help other veterans discover their own mission and purpose.
“I myself, have used art as a way to express my emotions for many years. Over the last few years, I have used art as a productive outlet when words were not enough or too much to even speak. I now use art not only for myself, but to help others. In 2018 SAVE22 helped save me and I now use my art to design many different aspects to help SAVE22 save others as they saved me!”
SAVE22 pulled me out of my deepest hole.
SAVE22 gave me hope when I thought all was lost.
“As someone who battles severe anxiety, unplugging from society is my go-to form of meditation. Sometimes just walking around our property looking for mushrooms or sassafras, and just focusing on the green space around me is enough to calm my racing thoughts and heart. Other times, it’s just not far enough away and I need to retreat to more primitive spaces. A weekend in the mountains has renewed my inner peace and given me strength to keep going more than a few times.”
SAVE22 came into my life right after losing a fellow veteran. I was struggling with survivors guilt, alcohol issues and pills. This group of people changed my life and gave me purpose. They accepted me with zero judgement and helped me through. I am definitely a better person because of SAVE22 and what we can do together.
