Semper Fi & America's Fund

Memorial fundraiser to coincide with the Alumni Night wrestling match, on 1/27/23 at Oak Hills High School (7pm), where Ryan Fitzpatrick’s loved ones will gather to support the current team while remembering Fitz’s achievements as a wrestler and his impact on the wrestling community and beyond.

All funds will go to: Semper Fi & America’s Fund

Semper Fi & America’s Fund cares for our nation’s critically wounded, ill, and injured service members, veterans, and military families. Supporting all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces, we provide one-on-one case management, connection, and lifetime support. Today. Tomorrow. Together.

Hey everyone my name is Dakota Meyer , I am a Marine Sniper that served in Iraq and Afghanistan and was a recipient of the Medal of Honor. For years I have dealt with PTSD and anxiety. A lot of times to the point of where I'm puking. I, like so many others, believed unless I wanted to be a statistic and take drugs, this was going to be something I had to struggle with no hope.

Fortunately I came in contact with a Dr. named Sean Mulvaney  who was a Navy SEAL and an Army Physician. He introduced me to the SGB (Stellate Ganglion Block)  in 2017. This procedure changed my life instantly and gave me the power to feel like I could deal with PTSD in a way I had never been able to before.

Now Im trying to do the same for other veterans. Unfortunately the procedure isn't covered by insurance and is about $900.00 with Ultrasound. My goal is to raise $100,000.00 to help give veterans peace back to a life they fought so hard for.  Fortunately the Semper Fi Fund  is going to help with this. 100% of the proceeds will go to veterans for this procedure.

Everyone knows somebody who struggles with PTSD, or at least knows somebody who knows somebody that has it. Please share this with everybody you know! You could give back! Everything helps. From myself, thank you everybody in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

The COVID-19 pandemic has been a difficult challenge for us all. Thankfully, we’re starting to see some light at the tunnel. Some friends and I have decided to challenge ourselves for an extremely positive cause:  Semper Fi and America’s Fund.  

We have challenged ourselves to run 4 miles, every 4 hours, for 2 days. For you non-math majors out there, that’s 48 miles! Are we crazy? No. Well, maybe a little. But while difficult, we wanted to come together for this effort. To be there to challenge one another and to support this great cause. 

Want to join us in making a difference? The money we raise will benefit Semper Fi and America’s Fund. This fund provides immediate financial assistance and lifelong support for all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families.  

Even the smallest donation will make a large impact on the lives of those who have served this great country and their families. Thank you all in advance for your contribution to this great cause that means so much to us!

This weekend, I will be participating in the 4x4x48 challenge to raise money for the Semper Fi and America’s Fund to support wounded, critically ill, and injured members of the U.S. Armed forces and their families.

The event is being held by former Navy Seal, David Goggins; and consists of running 4 miles, every 4 hours, for 48 hours from March 5th to March 7th to raise money for charity.

The Semper Fi & America’s Fund was started in 2003 when the first wave of Marines and Sailors came to Camp Pendleton, California after Operation Iraqi Freedom. Here, military spouses organized ‘welcome home’ activities for the wounded service members through distributing care bags, as well as arranged travel for family members who could not afford to come.

The Semper Fi & America’s Fund provides support through programs including service member and family assistance, post-service transition, and integrative wellness. Through veteran and family support, they address the needs of immediate families with programs such as housing assistance, bedside financial support, and kids’ programs. In addition, they assist service members in starting productive lives after service through education and career assistance. In addition to PTSD and TBI support, they take a holistic approach to long-term health through their NeuroFitness Programs and initiatives that provides counseling, as well as sport and art programs.

If it is within your means, any donations or support would be much appreciated. I will be logging all my runs and will be excited for the mental and physical challenge!

On November 8th, 15 NFP employees are about to have one of the most challenging yet rewarding experiences of our lives. We are participating in a 12 hour GoRuck event to support the Semper Fi Fund. For those of you who do not know what a GoRuck event is, it is a 12 hour (overnight) hike with a weighted ruck (or backpack) led by a special forces Green Beret cadre that simulates special operations training.

You can help us make more of an impact. The participants in the event will be doing all the hard physically laboring work but you can make that more impactful by making a donation through our GoFundMe page to the Semper Fi Fund. 

The Semper Fi Fund provides immediate financial assistance and lifetime support to combat wounded, critically ill and catastrophically injured members of all branches of the U.S. Armed Forces and their families, ensuring they have the resources they need during their recovery and transition back to their communities.

Their assistance encompasses three main program areas:

- Service Member and Family Support: direct financial assistance and vital programming for injured service members and their families during hospitalization and recovery.

- Transition: education support and career assistance to provide service members with tools and skills to successfully reconnect with their communities and build new, productive lives.

- Integrative Wellness: targeted health and wellness services and resources with a special focus on PTSD and traumatic brain injury

Our goal is to raise $5,000 for this wonderful organization. Any donation big or small is greatly appreciated and will help us reach our goal.

Thank you
