ABOUT THE EVENT

As America approaches its 250th anniversary, we are reminded that the strength of our nation is not found merely in its history, but in the character and compassion of its people.

Join business leaders, community members, veterans, and supporters for an unforgettable evening benefiting CrossCountry3 (CC3), a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping veterans rediscover hope, purpose, and identity after military service.

FEATURED SPEAKER

Bruce Duty, MAJ, USA (Ret.)

After serving 22 years in the United States Army, including two combat deployments to Iraq with the 3rd Infantry Division and 10th Mountain Division, Bruce witnessed firsthand the challenges many veterans face upon returning home.

Awarded the Bronze Star Medal, Meritorious Service Medal, and numerous other military honors, Bruce founded CrossCountry3 to help veterans transform adversity into purpose.

Through resilience training, leadership development, mentorship, retreats, workshops, and community service opportunities, CC3 equips veterans to become protectors, mentors, and servant leaders who continue serving long after their military careers end.

CC3 also plays a growing role in combating human trafficking by preparing veterans to serve vulnerable populations and support anti-trafficking initiatives throughout the world.
