Veterans Path to Hope Outdoors
Veterans Path to Hope Outdoors was created to support the mission of transforming and enriching lives through hosting recreational outdoor activities for military veterans, active-duty service members, and their families.
Our program embraces each veteran’s unique barriers and challenges, utilizing evidenced-based interventions to meet their needs and goals. The Outdoors program strives to help each service member through their healing journey by enhancing physical, cognitive, social, emotional, and leisure skills. Our goal is to offer necessary support in creative ways to boost quality of life for our service members and their families!
Maj Steven Roy Andrews Fishing Outreach Program
The Maj. Steven Roy Andrews Fishing Outreach Program Inc. is a 501(c) 3 non-profit program that was started in 2008 out of a need to help veterans and at risk and needy kids. The purpose of this program is to get veterans and kids hooked on fishing. For veterans it gives them a way to deal with issues from their service, be it mental or physical ones. Kids find a new hobby they can get involved with and make better choices in life as opposed to hanging around on the block and getting into trouble.
Recreation 4 Veterans

Our all-volunteer board strives to build camaraderie and introduce our Veterans to recreational options at low or no cost through donations and sponsorships from our supporters.

Guardian Outdoors
Guardian Outdoors is a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization filed under the official name Guardian Outdoor Adventures Inc. We are an entirely volunteer organization whose mission is to provide active duty military, military veterans, fire fighters, police officers, emts and other first responders with outdoor therapy adventures with the main focus of fishing and white water rafting, at no cost to the applicant.
22 2 None
22 2 None’s Outdoor Ventures Program (OVP) is committed to providing a time of respite and solace for our local veterans out on the rivers, lakes, and trails of Northern Michigan throughout the year.
The number of veteran suicides is alarming. While on active duty and working side-by-side, everyone had each other’s backs, with the mentality of never leaving a man behind. Re-entering civilian life is a large adjustment for most, but some struggle more than others.
This organization was created to rally together in hopes of keeping our brothers and sisters in arms safe, and to lend a hand, an ear, or even a shoulder when needed without judgement.
