VMSI Industry Partner – Shoulder 2 Shoulder develops Veterans Day video titled STAY; a video attempting to reach those Service Members and Veterans who may be struggling to remind them in the starkest terms possible that they are needed, respected, and loved.

VMSI has had the honor of working with Shoulder 2 Shoulder (S2S) (http://www.shoulder2shoulderinc.com/) over the years. S2S was founded by Ken Falke & Chris Ferguson. Ken is also the founder of the Boulder Crest Retreat for Military & Veteran Wellness (bouldercrestretreat.org). VMSI has partnered with Boulder Crest and donates 100% of our corporate charitable donations to this organization. Boulder Crest is a wounded warrior’s retreat just west of Washington, D.C. in Bluemont, VA.

S2S was created to provide innovative solutions that prevent traumatic injuries and enable the Wounded Warrior healing process while driving profits and proceeds to partners and Veteran charities.

S2S created the video, STAY in partnership with family members of Veterans and service members who have lost their loved ones to suicide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xrvi7056si0&feature=youtu.be

There are an estimated 22 Veterans and active duty military that take their lives EVERY SINGLE DAY! The simple fact is that even one a day is too many. On this Veterans Day, S2S has a special message to Service Members and Veterans: Stay. We need you. Each and every one of you.
