Rise Broadband is sponsoring this No Barriers Warriors team-building expedition to help veterans with disabilities from all military branches tackle and overcome personal challenges. Rise Broadband will support the training and weeklong expedition of 12 veterans as they complete a 30-mile trek through the wilderness.

These team-building challenge expeditions are designed to push veterans physically and mentally, providing a training ground for stretching goals, facing adversity, and stepping up to lead and serve others. Rise Broadband is proud to participate because many of our employees and customers have served and protected us through military service. We are excited to give back by helping them to return home and reconnect with their communities.

How Can I Get Involved?

You can support the 2018 team by pledging to Walk With The Warriors! Walk with the Warriors is a walking and fundraising campaign to support No Barriers Warriors. These wounded veterans are each walking 30 miles with No Barriers on their journey to wellness. Set your own fundraising and walking goal to show your support. All fundraising donations help No Barriers support more Warrior programs like the one we’re sponsoring. Join us by taking the Warriors Strong pledge and kick-start your fundraising and start earning WWTW swag as you meet fundraising milestones!  Can’t participate but still want to help?  Please consider donating to the Rise Broadband Team. 100% of the money raised goes directly to the No Barriers Warriors program to help veterans.
