Our Mission
GallantFew provides one-on-one transition assistance and veteran support to any service member or veteran seeking guidance along their transition from the military and reintegration into American society. We motivate communities all over the nation to take responsibility for veterans returning; welcoming, connecting, and including.
GallantFew was founded by veterans for veterans.
Why transition?
Picture yourself today being thrust into a new place you’ve never been, having to immediately provide for your family. How do you secure a job? What do you do for healthcare? Where do you live? How will your relationship and kids weather these changes? How will you succeed during this critical juncture in your life? These are questions our veterans and their families face during transition.
According to the Department of Defense, every day approximately 1,300 new veterans, spouses, and children begin the journey of reintegration into their local communities. The transition for these families brings many unique challenges and no two transitions are the same.
These veterans and their families are incredible assets to our nation. Given the opportunity of effective integration, they will continue to serve and lead in our communities and businesses.
Are You Gallantly Fit?
The GallantFew STAR (Self Training And Response-ability) Program is the method by which GallantFew provides one-on-one mentorship to veterans. The Program encompasses mentorship in the main fitness areas of transition from military service to civilian life: emotional, spiritual, physical, professional and social. Goals within each fitness area are:
- Spiritual: A life of purpose and direction.
- Professional. A fulfilling career, education, and financial growth.
- Social. Integration and leadership in civilian communities.
- Physical. Healthy and fit lifestyle.
- Emotional. A personal growth mindset with sound emotional state.
How We Serve
