Why We Are Supporting the Carry the Load Organization
Manage episode 358858825 series 2408296
With just two months to go until our Great American Summit, it's time to connect you with our event beneficiaries. First up is Carry the Load. This is an organization whose mission statement should resonate strongly with all of us, but which resonates deeply with co-founder Barb Allen, Whose husband Lou was killed in Iraq- just 10 days after he deployed on Memorial Day, 2005.
Former Navy SEAL Clint Bruce was at a backyard BBQ one Memorial Day weekend when a sudden weight overcame him. Unsure how to process the emotions that hit him, CLint laced up his boots and went for a walk, leaving the meat on the grill. Clint is unsure how far he walked that day, but a few miles into his journey he encountered another veteran. This man was seasoned- his service took place when Clint was just a boy- and he recognized a troubled soul when he saw one.
With a soft smile and gentle voice he asked Clint, "Who are you carrying?"
And that was the moment Carry the Load was born.
