Lives We Touched in 2017
Our Mission
To provide adventure based opportunities to Exceptional Warriors who served together to heal together.
The FEW’s Impact
In 2017 we put over 400 Exceptional Warriors in the field in more than 20 States, using adventure to unite peers and promote healing at no cost to the Veteran.
Your donations make this possible. Our overhead is less than 3%. Almost 100% of your donations go directly to supporting outdoor therapeutic activities. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has recognized The FEW as meeting the highest standards of public accountability and program effectiveness.
12 Strong
The FEW’s co-founder was the actual Special Forces Team Leader of the “Horse Soldiers” and he is played by Chris Hemsworth. While the movie reaches beyond reality it is a great way to display the exceptional deeds of Exceptional Warriors.
These are the type of Veterans that volunteer to lead The FEW. We recognize and understand first hand the duties, deeds and decisions that define Exceptional Warriors and we are here for them, ARE YOU?
All across the Country our Exceptional Warriors who have Served Together – Heal Together.

We were honored to make the wishes of two POW’s, of which one was a Medal of Honor recipient and the other received the Silver Star, both also earned the Purple heart as well. This was appropriately named the HONOR JUMP. Click here to watch the video!

Marlin in Cabo
A former Green Beret, now medically retired after missions in Afghanistan, Iraq and other troublesome places across the world, Sweger volunteers full time with The FEW and other organizations, coordinating fishing, hunting and outdoor adventure experiences for other exceptional warriors. This trip, his board of directors decided, was his.
Montana Buffalo Hunt
Joe Buffalo, the lead rider of our 15-man hunting party, turns a corner on the trail and his horse sinks belly-deep into a snowdrift. The horse panics for a split second and tries to back up, but Joe kicks hard, growling something fierce at the gelding under his breath, forcing it forward into the drift.
Big Water Wakeboarding - Every Duty Heroes
Big Water Wakeboarding
Nissan Titan, as a proud partner of the Expedition: Hero series, is celebrating veterans and their service to America by taking them out to enjoy their personal passions. WAKEBOARDING magazine teamed up with professional wakeboarders Steel Lafferty and Josh Palma to take veterans Joey Watanabe and Darren Bland on a big water wakeboarding adventure on Lake Powell.
