Why We Carry The Load

Carry The Load was founded on a simple belief: the sacrifice of our nation’s heroes should never be forgotten, and the weight of that sacrifice should never be carried alone. Through community-driven events, fundraising, and remembrance, we honor the fallen, support families, and stand alongside those who continue to serve.

About Carry The Load

Carry The Load is a non-profit organization that exists to actively connect Americans to the sacrifices made by our military, first responders, and their families.​ What started in 2011 as a grassroots effort by Veteran U.S. Navy SEALs, Clint Bruce and Stephen Holley has now grown into a nationwide movement with people honoring and remembering our nation’s heroes throughout the year.

Mission. Vision.

What Guides Everything We Do

Carry The Load is built on more than events or fundraising, it is driven by a clear mission and vision that shape how we serve, remember, and support those affected by service. These principles guide our actions and keep our work focused on lasting impact.

Our write-up

Carry The Load is in our directory because we went looking for resources in this category and confirmed theirs is real and serving this community. What you see above is their own description, quoted from their site. We have not yet added our own write-up — the programs, eligibility and military fit that we check ourselves — and we would rather leave that blank than guess at it.

In the meantime, their official site is the authority: carrytheload.org

For the organization

Are you Carry The Load?

This page was written about you, not by you. We built it because the people we serve were already looking for you and deserved a straight answer about what you do. If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.

Claiming it gives you an account here and a route to request changes — corrections, new programs, updated events. Those requests are handled by Meridian Tech, our partner, under their subscription service. You are not editing this page yourself, and we would rather say that plainly now than have you find out after you sign up.

“Claim this page” opens a checkout on milconnect.com, where you set up your organization's account. Being listed here is free, and staying listed is free. Meridian Tech — the company that also builds and runs MILCONNECT.AI — provides the account and the update service, and the AI Workspace is their paid product. We are telling you about a commercial relationship before you act on it rather than after, because you are a nonprofit being asked to spend money and you deserve to see the whole shape of it first. If anything on this page is simply wrong, email us and we will fix it for free; that never requires a subscription.

This page is maintained by MILCONNECT.AI and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authored by Carry The Load. It is a directory entry compiled from community recommendations. We do not rate, rank or endorse anything in this directory, and being listed here is not a recommendation — clinical or otherwise. We are not a medical provider and cannot tell you whether a program is right for you. Check eligibility, cost and current status with the organization directly before you rely on it.
