Project RELO Information

An Innovative Nonprofit Project RELO transforms corporate America’s perspective on the value and character of our veterans through intensive and immersive business leadership training exercises. We do this by pairing small teams of executives with transitioning vets on an exhilarating, outdoor and off-road leadership curriculum. Run like a military operation, participants bond over both scripted and unscripted adversity, forging deep and meaningful relationships as they are forced to rely upon one another to navigate through prepared objectives. The veterans, domain experts in these environments, capably demonstrate their knowledge, selflessness, mission orientation and ethic. It is here the character and competence of veterans is experienced first-hand. It is also here Project RELO begins to change the mindset of corporate America on the quality of our veterans. Attending executives understand that participation requires service. Upon the completion of every Project RELO event, each group of business leaders is presented with the profiles of 100 veterans they have collectively committed to place in their network. With the intent of ensuring that as many of the 100 vets are hired, the newly formed network collaborates with the new understanding… …that hiring a vet is more than a social good, it is simply good business. Our Aspiration Project RELO intends to place 400 vets into our business network in 2016. By 2018, we intend to have grown both the business and partner networks to a scale where we are capable of placing 5,000 veterans annually
