Since their founding in 2010, the Catch A Lift Fund (CAL) has helped thousands of post-9/11 combat injured veterans regain their mental and physical health through gym memberships, in-home gym equipment, personalized fitness, as well as nutritional programs and a peer support network. Thanks to their healthier lifestyle, CAL veterans are seeing and feeling significant results, including dramatic weight loss, reduction in medications, improved sleep patterns and strengthened relationships with family and friends. The greatest impact of the program - Veteran testimonials reveal that CAL has "SAVED THEIR LIVES". In order to provide intervention for those affected by the invisible injuries and emotional stress of combat, CAL is committed to helping change the narrative and stigma surrounding mental health - 20 VETERANS DIE BY SUICIDE EVERY DAY.

PAY IT FORWARD PROGRAM

CAL knows the camaraderie between brothers and sisters in arms does not end when uniforms are retired. Every day more veterans apply to the CAL program to find that missing bond. The Pay It Forward Program is an opportunity for veterans to support each other as they travel on their journey towards fitness and health.

The Program is designed to help veteran members regain strength, confidence and health, both physically and mentally. As they progress and reach their goals, their restored strength can help a fellow brother or sister get started. Veteran members can become an ambassador for CAL at any point during their membership. So that CAL may provide as many grants as possible, to as many veterans as possible, participation in the Pay It Forward Program is required for consideration of Year 3 grant applications. This will allow for thousands of veterans to be served for years to come.
