Team RWB's mission is enrich the lives of America's veterans by connecting them to their community through physical and social activity.

 Team Red, White & Blue (Team RWB) is a veteran support nonprofit organization whose vision is to increase the connectivity between America's combat veterans and people in their communities. We use exercise as a medium to bring people together (running, triathlon, Crossfit, yoga, hiking, etc...) We also provide personal assistance/coaching for veterans who want to get back into shape. 

 Team Red, White & Blue promotes:

1. Reintegration through physical fitness

+ Physical: rebuild the body, give structure to life and bolster self-esteem

+ Psychological: help to process experiences from Iraq/Afghanistan

+ Social: connect with people to run, bike, workout, and be active

2. Personal connectivity between Veterans and citizens in the community where they now live

+ Community-building events that bring Veterans together with citizens

+ Formation of friendships and natural individual relationships

3. Galvanization of esprit de corps and team membership

+ Bringing back the feeling from the military of pride and being part of a unit

By creating authentic relationships, developing physical, psychological, and social health, and bringing back the military sense of pride and being part of a team,Team RWB enriches the lives of our veterans.
