About ManKind Project

About Ron Hering
Ron Hering (1936-1993) was one of the founders of the ManKind Project, helping to create and lead the New Warrior Training Adventure. Ron was passionate about Mission, Purpose, and Service. This award was established in his name to honor those among us who are living their missions through action in the world.
For over 20 years the ManKind Project has recognized men living missions of service in the world.
One of the primary outcomes of the New Warrior Training Adventure is a man connecting with his own personal sense of purpose in the world. From this he writes a personal mission statement to help him direct his passion and energy. For many men this personal mission translates into action in the world. The Ron Hering Award recognizes this action.
Each year since 1998 the Ron Hering Mission of Service Award has been presented to one man or group of men from each Region / Area who is breathing life into outstanding Missions of Service in the world. Winners of the award have positively impacted millions of people through their service. And the services they have given cover every area of human endeavor.

Our write-up
ManKind Project is in our directory because the military community keeps recommending it. 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: mankindproject.org

Are you ManKind Project?
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 If anything here is wrong, out of date, or puts it badly, we would rather hear it from you than leave it up.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 ManKind Project. 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.
