About Warfighter Made

Warfighter Made Mission



Warfighter made is committed to improving the mental health of military service members, veterans, and their families through recreational therapy, camaraderie therapy, S.T.E.M. educational youth programs, and family-oriented events that promote connection and healing.

Warfighter Made helps in 4 main ways:

  1. We provide Recreational Therapy to service members, veterans, and their families with a fleet of Polaris RZR’s for enjoyment on a private off-road course. Several vehicles are adapted for those with catastrophic injuries. These events improve quality of life, mental health, and bring families together in a fun and positive environment.
  2. We provide Camaraderie Therapy in our 4,000 sqft. facility to all veterans, from all branches and eras, to work beside other veterans who have walked in their boots and shared similar experiences. This program builds confidence, creates a network of support, improves communication skills, and provides an encouraging environment for veterans to manage stressors related to Post Traumatic Stress.
  3. We invite ill, injured and combat wounded veterans to participate in Recreational Therapy Retreats. These retreats bring families together in a fun and supportive environment.
  4. We provide a S.T.E.M. (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) based educational program for the children of our veterans. Students learn character development traits such as leadership, integrity, responsibility, compassion, respect, and self-discipline. Students learn the importance of respecting the environment, protecting ecosystems and preserving trails and parks for future generations.

Warfighter Made also works with other like-minded nonprofits, businesses and individuals to ensure the veterans get the best experience possible.
