The compassion and courage of our first responders and active military are evident and displayed now more so than ever with the COVID-19 health crisis. Paying tribute to them, our veterans, and their families, and the sacrifices they make has been a flagstone of Carry The Load's annual Memorial May event. Since its founding in 2011, to honor our heroes and restore the true meaning of Memorial Day, the grassroots, non-profit has raised over $25 million to support active duty military, veterans, and first responders' needs.
