Sponsor Active-Duty Soldiers!
By donating, you will allow lower Enlisted Soldiers (E-5 and below) to participate in the Memorial Day Ruck March and enroll them into the challenge series at no cost to the Soldier. This will act as a morale booster while also qualifying any event finisher for the official Norwegian Foot March foreign proficiency badge.
The Impact of your Sponsorship
When you sponsor a Soldier, you’re doing far more than covering an entry fee. Your support gives them the chance to take on the Norwegian Foot March qualifier (Memorial Day Ruck March) and join the Colorado Challenge Series at no cost - a powerful morale boost that reminds them they’re seen, valued, and backed by the community they serve.
For many Soldiers, this isn’t just another event. It’s a chance to reconnect with purpose, push themselves alongside others who understand the weight they carry, and be part of something bigger than any single mile or medal. Your sponsorship fuels that sense of belonging while directly supporting the mission: raising vital funds for the veterans and families who rely on organizations like Veterans to Veterans and Mt. Carmel Veteran Service Center.
You’re not just helping a Soldier cross a finish line. You’re helping them lift their battle buddies, strengthen their community, and carry the mission forward.
