Raising Awareness
For Veteran Suicide Prevention

Fighting for those who fought for our country.

Together we will succeed!

Our Mission

Why We Do This.

22 Mohawks is a 501(c)(3) Veteran Charitable Organization helping veterans lead themselves to find purpose. We do this by bringing veterans, their families and the community together through social connection to create a sense of belonging, hosting annual static line parachuting retreats, providing companion dogs through our Pups for Vets Program and teaching Suicide Prevention Classes.

It has been proven that organizations that give dogs to veterans have a 0% suicide rate and studies show that adrenaline producing activities can reduce and even eliminate anxiety and depression in the short term.

In addition to hosting 4 major annual events, we also connect veterans with free financial classes, gym memberships, mental fitness classes, and much more to empower them to overcome the many obstacles they face each day.

We need your support to continue offering our assistance to veterans while expanding our vital services and programs.
