The Cause

For a Marine in need

His name is held back for now, out of respect. What we can tell you is this: he answered the call, and now the call is ours.

He served on active duty as a Marine Corps Drill Instructor and is the father of two young boys. After his divorce, the court set his child support higher than his actual take-home pay — and even while paying what he can every single month, the deductions have left him with almost nothing to live on.

He isn’t standing still. He’s working long hours and putting himself through paramedic school so he can serve his community and build a real future for his sons. He never asked for a handout, just a fair shot. Every dollar raised above the cost of the Colt goes directly to him.
