This campaign is led by John Johnson & Back to Nature as part of their commitment to serving veterans and first responders in our community.

All donations are securely processed and stewarded by American Warrior Initiative, a nationally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit that provides life-changing service dogs to veterans.

Welcome to your local Outpost of the American Warrior Initiative (AWI).

You have just joined a grassroots team of civilians and veterans united by a singular mission: to bridge the military-civilian divide and serve those who’ve served us—veterans, first responders, and their families.

As part of an AWI outpost, together we take local action to create national impact. Our Outpost hosts fundraising events, builds connections with veteran organizations, and directly supports those in need right here in your home town.

What makes us unique? When we join together to hold fundraisers, every dollar we raise will go directly to helping veterans and first responders—most often through life-changing service dogs, emergency assistance, or customized support. Thanks to Fairway Independent Mortgage covering all administrative costs, 100% of public donations go where they’re needed most - directly to the hero in need.

We believe in the power of community. Whether it’s through fundraising with a cornhole tournament, a 5K, a golf tournament, etc., or simply lending a hand, we’re working one neighborhood at a time to make sure no veteran or first responder feels forgotten.

You’re not just supporting a cause—you’re joining a mission.

Join us. Volunteer. Donate. Share. Together, we can serve those who’ve served us.
