We help post-9/11 combat veterans and their loved ones thrive through a variety of programs. When you sponsor a Warrior or military caregiver, your support can help them find peace, meaning and purpose through a variety of experiences.
Our first-time Fishing Experiences (FX) are the beginning of a better future for many post-9/11 combat veterans and their caregivers. FX’s are completely free to participants and include travel to Quiet Waters Ranch in Montana, as well as gifted equipment for participants to take home with them. Participants join a group of up to 6 veterans or caregivers who are ready to reflect on their service, find community in the WQW family and discover a sense of purpose.
Hunt for Purpose is an intensive, 6 month pursuit to plan, prepare for and execute a successful archery elk hunt in Montana’s backcountry. Along the way, participants will learn the basics of elk hunting and backcountry survival, improve their physical fitness, and work alongside fellow Warriors and loved ones toward a common goal.
WQW offers several ways for alumni to return to Quiet Waters Ranch to further hone their new skills, deepen the connections they’ve made, share meaningful experiences with family members, and continue fostering their sense of purpose in civilian life.
Your sponsorship gives a participant everything they need to find a peak experience during their stay in Montana.

Hi! My name is Liz Shull and I’m part of the WQW Development team. I’d love to discuss how your support can change a Warrior's life. Please reach out to me with any questions or to learn more about sponsoring a Warrior.
Want to get others involved in sponsoring a Warrior? Host a fundraiser.
Learn MoreWhen you sponsor a Warrior through one of WQW’s many programs, you’re covering all of their expenses for a life-changing experience, including travel, gear to keep, food, lodging, and more. Your sponsorship ensures a worry-free experience for a Warrior and the mental space to help them find meaning and purpose in their post-service life. Additionally, your sponsorship gives them access to a community of veterans, caregivers and their loved ones who offer support and connection for a lifetime.
The privacy of our program participants is a priority of our organization. While you won’t know the name of the Warrior you sponsored, we will let you know which program they attend.
