#71 | Don Bramer | Veteran | American Freedom Fund
A great chat with Don Bramer about the fantastic organization he oversees, the American Freedom Fund. A nonprofit that empowers veterans through a mission of athletics, education, and advocacy. Next week is their annual Manhattans, Martinis & Mistletoe Veterans Awards Gala in Washington, DC. Tickets are still available for this great cause!
What is the American Freedom Fund? American Freedom Fund (AFF), 501(c)(19), was founded in 2016 by three combat veterans, LT Don Bramer, MAJ Rob Miller, and Petty Officer Gabe Stecker. After their individual tours of duty, they sought a way to continue serving their brothers and sisters in arms by providing the Veteran community the opportunity; the means to maintain the fellowship; and the support of the military as they transition towards their next career. AFF empowers Active Duty, Reserve and Separated Service Members through a mission of athletics, education, and advocacy. The goal of AFF is simple: provide a place for active duty and Veteran service members to come together in a spirit of camaraderie to participate in recreational AND competitive sports; to afford the means and opportunity for student Veterans who seek a career in defense or public policy to achieve the next step in their goals; and to raise awareness and financial support for Veteran focused organizations that are providing crucial resources for Veterans in the community.
