BODY
“A man had not begun to live until he can rise above the narrow confines of his own individual concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity."
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Continuing Service
The AWA supports our military, veterans and first responders volunteering within their communities to promote the values of our founder’s principals. We provide them with the critical community resources they need to continue their unselfish service to others. This body of work and continued service to their communities geometrically progresses goodness throughout society.
Our Urban Explorers Program
Urban Explorers provides warriors that have been through an AWA program a unique opportunity to continue their service by mentoring at-risk youth in America’s underserved communities.
This program brings urban youth to the Rocky Mountains each summer to teach them outdoorsman skills and mentor the next generation in the values of freedom and love for one’s nation. We believe that Urban Explorers will establish impactful relationships and have a lasting positive affect on not only our nation’s warrior class, but also the next generation of leaders.
The American Warrior Association is passionate about investing in the youth of America as they will become the leaders of tomorrow. We understand the importance of capturing their hearts and minds at a young age and instilling American values in our next generation.
The Urban Explorers Program Addresses Two Problems
Veterans Affairs states that more than 55% of veterans feel disconnected
from civilian life.
More than one in three young people, roughly 6 million young adults, never had a positive role model or mentor.
The Urban Explorers program will establish impactful relationships and have a lasting positive affect on not only our nation’s warrior class, but also the next generation of leaders helping to solve both problems.
