Founded by Veteran U.S. Navy SEALs, Clint Bruce and Stephen Holley, Carry The Load started as a mission to restore the true meaning of Memorial Day. Today, it has grown to include more than just our military heroes and more than just the one holiday. To date, Carry The Load has raised over $30 million to support military, veteran, and first responder programs and services.
This year five relay routes will start at different points in the country, and all coverage in Dallas over Memorial Day weekend. Stephen Holley, former Navy SEAL and co-founder of Carry The Load, and Mark Elliott, retired US Army Coronel and Global Head of Military and Veteran Affairs at JPMorgan Chase, discuss what to expect from these events.
