Our objective is to help veterans suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder absolve or reduce their symptoms to increase daily functioning and improve their overall quality of life. The focus is to combine the utilization of SGB with traditional therapies, by clinical therapists with expertise in trauma and veteran treatment to achieve long-term resolution of post-trauma symptoms. We're humbly calling out to our community to help support this effort.   ### What's the goal? Our goal is to raise $75,000 by Memorial Day.   What would the goal support? It would help us save the lives of 50 veterans. These veterans are your community members who sacrificed everything so that you can enjoy the freedoms that you hold so dear; this last year has been a stark reminder of how precious our freedoms are. We intend on updating the public regularly on how close we are to reaching our goal, being transparent, and rallying for our effort the whole month through.
