🐕 BENEFICIARY SPOTLIGHT: Leashes of Valor
A custom-trained service dog can completely change the trajectory of a post-9/11 veteran's life. That’s why Leashes of Valor is one of our proud beneficiary partners for the 2026 Veterans Honor Run!
Leashes of Valor provides service dogs at zero cost to wounded and injured post-9/11 veterans. These dogs give veterans suffering in silence the independence, confidence, and daily support needed to navigate public spaces and re-engage with their communities.
100% of proceeds raised at Heritage Park on Nov 7–8 support programs that help Michigan veterans who are still here!

🐴 BENEFICIARY SPOTLIGHT: Therapeutic Riding, Inc.
Healing often happens outside traditional clinical settings. That’s why Everyone Needs A Steve is proud to support Therapeutic Riding, Inc. (TRI) through the 2026 Veterans Honor Run!
TRI provides adaptive horseback riding and equine-assisted therapies that empower military veterans to build physical strength, relieve stress, and reconnect with a supportive community. The bond between a veteran and a horse offers a unique form of therapy grounded in trust, focus, and mutual respect.
100% of proceeds from our event at Heritage Park (Nov 7–8) directly fund impactful programs that support Michigan veterans who are still here.

🎸 BENEFICIARY SPOTLIGHT: Guitars For Vets - Detroit, MI
When veterans return home or navigate life after service, the traditional path to healing isn't always enough. That’s why Everyone Needs A Steve supports organizations like Guitars for Vets!

Guitars for Vets provides military veterans with free guitars and structured music instruction, offering a creative outlet, stress relief, and a supportive community of fellow musicians. Music provides a sense of purpose and connection that helps veterans who are still here keep moving forward.

100% of the funds raised through the Veterans Honor Run (Nov 7–8 at Heritage Park) go directly toward empowering programs like this!

We are officially less than 2 weeks out from race weekend (Nov. 7–8) at Heritage Park, and Uncle Steve is calling on our incredible community to join the pit crew!

☕ Aid Station Crew: Keep hot soup, coffee, and snacks flowing for our 22-hour ultra runners.
🌙 Overnight Energy Squad: Night owls needed to keep music playing and spirits high in the dark hours!
⏱️ Timing & Lap Support: Help keep our runners on track.

We are officially less than 3 weeks away from the Veterans Honor Run (Nov 7–8) at Heritage Park, and the numbers tell a clear story:
🏃 73% of our participant spots are filled.
💙 71% of our fundraising goal is raised.
It’s no coincidence these numbers move together. Every runner, walker, and virtual participant who steps up brings us closer to funding life-changing programs for Michigan veterans who are still here—from adaptive equine therapy to music programs and purpose-driven community.

We have 29% left to raise and just a handful of spots left on the track. Whether you're running a few loops, taking on the 22-hour challenge, or donating to a participant's page, your support makes a direct impact.
Let’s fill those final spots and hit 100% together!

We weren’t able to attend a local dinner fundraiser for Stop Soldier Su***de this past weekend, but the cause is important to us. It’s 100% aligned with our mission and, really, with our DNA.
I still wanted us to have a meaningful presence there, so I decided to pay for TWO FULL TABLES of plates and leave the seats empty.
It’s hard to ignore two empty tables in the middle of a room.
And even harder to ignore what they represent.
These seats represented the Veterans we lose to su***de in ONE DAY.
That’s the problem we’re all trying to change.
