The Colorado Wounded Vet Run is not like other wounded veteran support organizations; we are LOCAL people helping LOCAL heroes. We are not a national organization with funds going to six-figure executive salaries. Within the Colorado Wounded Vet Run not a single director, staff member, or volunteer gets paid a dime for their time. Every dollar raised goes directly to the current year’s honoree(s) or toward operations costs (these are minimal). Additionally, because our run is hosted, managed, and conducted at the local level, our honoree(s) are also our neighbors. When you participate in the Colorado Wounded Vet Run you will meet and shake hands with the local hero you are supporting. You can be confident your dollars will go to the specific needs of each honoree.
