November 6-7, the Navy SEAL Foundation hosted over 500 medical professionals, Naval Special Warfare (NSW) community members, caregivers and thought leaders at our 2ndAnnual Impact Forum, held at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in San Diego.
This month the Navy SEAL Foundation responded to 30 individual requests for support of a Naval Special Warfare Warriors and their families. Of the 30 requests, 14 of them were in support of SEALs; two were in support of SWCCs and 14 were for support personnel assigned to NSW commands.
This month the Foundation was excited to partner with Exum Mountain Guides and Mission Memorial Day to enable 3 active-duty SEALs to participate in the 5th annual Grand Teton Veterans Adaptive Climb with Exum Mountain Guides.
This month the Navy SEAL Foundation supported 29 wounded, ill and injured requests to include logistical family support, necessary rehabilitation equipment and veteran medical support for combat sustained injuries.
Hundreds gathered on July 20th at the Virginia Beach ocean front to witness the dedication of the country’s newest Navy SEAL Monument. The project, featuring the “Naked Warrior” statue and sand from places all around the world where SEALs have served, was spearheaded by Rick Woolard, a retired SEAL Captain.
There’s no question about it; summer is a busy time at the Navy SEAL Foundation! Between our seven specialized summer camps for Naval Special Warfare (NSW) kids and teens, our annual family support activities, the myriad of fundraising events, and our day-to-day operations we are surrounded by a constant buzz of activity. This time of year is also a time of great reflection, with patriotic holidays and sadly, many NSW memorial anniversaries for our Fallen Heroes.
