Creating a positive change in the lives of our veterans by pairing them as ongoing mentors to children of our nation's fallen heroes.

Welcome to Active Valor, a company envisioned by combat veterans desiring to utilize their specialized skill sets to create sustainable support for those who serve. We are on a mission to give new purpose to veterans be redirecting their passion towards making a positive change in their local communities. Our goal is to create a bridge between those who have served, those who are serving, and those who want an avenue to help those who have. In a time where turmoil seems to be all around us, we wanted to show the men and women defending us on a daily basis just how appreciated their service is. We have created an accessible place for those who want to have direct, personalized support to the men and women who serve our country.

“The best way to honor those on 9/11 is to be the people we were on 9/12.”

There is an entire generation now who have no memories from this horrific day. As time passes, I know each of us feels a duty to keep the historic memory and stories of great heroism alive. 25 years later, we are still left in awe of those who sacrificed it all in the air, in hallways, in staircases, and in panic stricken streets.

Today, let’s stand together to honor those we lost, thinking of them not as a combined number, but as 2,977 individual lives with individual stories and individual futures that were cut too short. 🇺🇸

A big thank you to Vortex Optics for being one of our gear sponsors for our last Valor Adventures!

Your generosity made it possible for our veterans and Gold Star mentees to be mission ready for an epic day of shooting, team tactics, bomb defusing, and rescuing downed pilots.

We greatly appreciate your support for our mission.

Forever grateful for all the operators who keep on giving their all for our families, proving the mission doesn’t end when the uniform gets hung up. In fact, we like to pull that uniform out once in awhile, just to make sure it’s always mission ready.

“Success is when persistence meets preparation.”

No one knows that better than our veteran mentors and their Gold Star mentees!

What an adventure! Check out a quick recap from our most recent Father’s Day Valor Adventure.

We had an epic day of target shooting, bomb defusing, code deciphering, pilot rescuing, and so much more!

On top of that, we were also celebrating our 10 year anniversary as an organization. What an amazing journey it has been. We want to take a moment to thank everyone who has supported our mission over the last decade. We would not be where we are today without you. We look forward to seeing what the next 10 years brings! 🇺🇸

A big thank you to all of our participants for the day, and for all of our sponsors who made this day possible.

Solving complicated problems is always better with a team!

Super stoked to have gotten our Veterans and Gold Star families together for our annual Father’s Day weekend adventure.

This year brought a unique set of challenges for our groups to utilize teamwork and some creative problem solving skills to have complete success of their mission.

Bombs were defused, shoot houses were cleared and pilots were recovered. A great day of action, excitement and of course adventure. **Video Dropping this week**

Thank you to Strategic Operations for hosting us, to all the sponsors that provided mission critical gear, and to all of our amazing mentors and families that came to share the day with us. We greatly look forward to having everyone back together again!
