RISEUP for Heroes: A Call to Remember, A Mission to Restore

Every day, our nation’s military and first responders step into battles most of us will never see. They run toward danger, hold the line in chaos, and carry burdens that would break most. But too often, when the crisis ends, they are left to face the fallout alone.

That’s where Battle2be Inc. and the RISEUP Phoenix Trauma and Crisis Institute step in.
Our mission is simple and unstoppable: to meet crucial and critical needs where, when, and how they are needed most.

Through our RISEUP Responders Mental Wellness and Life Mastery Program, we deliver the tools of resilience, prevention, protection, response, and recovery. From retreats that restore the soul, to relationship programs that rebuild connection, to crisis intervention that saves lives in real time—we make sure those who serve are never left behind.

And the results speak for themselves:

More than 400 hours of free one-on-one coaching, consulting, and mentoring sessions provided to military and first responders every year for the past 3 years.
Over 10,000 heroes and families served through peer support, training, and group programming.
Preparing to launch a first-of-its-kind free online course, community, and coaching platform that delivers culturally competent, real-world, confidential help at the fingertips of those who need it most.
14 suicide interventions this year alone, with lives redirected from the edge of despair back toward hope.

But we don’t stop with the living. We honor the fallen.

The Ferryman Memorial Project exists to ensure that the light of their service is never diminished by the cause of their death. Whether lost in the line of duty or to the silent war of suicide, every hero deserves to be remembered.

At the heart of this remembrance is Phoenix, our rolling memorial jeep, carrying the names of over 600 fallen heroes across the country. With every Ride2Remember memorial ride, every plaque presented to a grieving family, we speak their names. Because as they say: “We die twice. Once when breath leaves our bodies. And again, the last time our name is spoken.”

We ensure our heroes live on forever.

Our Ripples Memorial Stones carry that promise even further. Each one, a small, nature-friendly tribute, ensures the ripples of their life live on forever. More than 5,000 memorial stones have been placed—including some that traveled all the way to Ireland. We have also created and presented 130 plaques to families of the fallen, keeping their stories alive for generations to come.

The RISEUP: Hope for Heroes Gala is more than an event—it is a lifeline. It is our chance to rise together: to feed resilience, to restore hope, to honor the fallen, and to ensure that no hero’s service is forgotten.

Your support is not just a donation. It is partnership. It is remembrance. It is life-saving impact.

Together, we rise—and together, we ensure our heroes live on forever.
