For the past three years, I have personally fundraised to enable veterans to attend the Climb for Heroes event. Last year, I raised enough funds for 32 veterans to participate. This year, I’m aiming for 40.

On November 9, I will hike Mt. Baldy alongside my Team RWB Eagles. I’ve been hosting monthly training hikes, and we are working hard to prepare for our big hike in November. My team of veterans includes men and women of all different shapes, sizes, and fitness levels. Some bear physical scars, while others have emotional ones, but they all share a common goal: reaching the top of Mt. Baldy on November 9, Chris and I will be there, right beside them.

Please consider donating to my team. It might not change the world, but it will positively impact their lives!

Best regards,  

Jodie Merkle
