Off The BattleField Foundation: Empowerment Beyond Combat
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to the task of restoring and supporting communities devasted by conflict. Our first mission: is to bridge the gap between veterans of war and compassionate companions worldwide, fostering bonds of understanding, support, and cultural exchange. Through our innovative programs, we strive to enhance the mental well-being of veterans by providing them with dedicated companionship while empowering students to make a positive impact in their communities and beyond.
This initiative is just the beginning of OBF's mission. We plan to expand to other potential universities around the globe, starting within the United States! 🌎 If you are interested in starting a chapter at your university or college, fill out the following interest form: https://lnkd.in/eBueFWRG
Sister City Alliance - The City of Gainesville is planning to create a Sister-City Alliance with the City of Nizhyn, a municipality in Ukraine. We hope to establish a local coalition of private and public sector partners who can contribute to the development of this relationship and uphold its longevity. Investment may vary, ranging from simple donations to launches of innovative projects, using the cities as case studies for specific developments. We envision a collaborative effort to showcase our cities as models for progress and development on a global scale.
