The 11th Annual 2023 Veteran Suicide Awareness March will take place in 2 formats. The first is our IN-PERSON 11th Annual Wisconsin March, the second is our VIRTUAL March. Both events will be held on Saturday, November 11th. Last year, more than 1,000 Veterans, active duty service members and civilians came together at the event to raise awareness and honor the lives and service of those who we have lost to this epidemic.

Many of the participants are civilians, active, non-active, and Veteran military personnel, however, all are encouraged to participate or attend to show their support. Though it’s not a requirement, many of the participants will be carrying a rucksack or backpack in remembrance of the Veterans who complete suicide each and every day.

Money raised will assist in helping those suffering from mental illness and considering this tragic fate. Every Veteran deserves our help in overcoming such obstacles after serving our country and fighting for our freedoms. Thus, we are asking you to join us this Veterans Day weekend to assist in bringing awareness to Veteran suicide by sponsoring H.O.O.A.H.’s Veteran Suicide Awareness March.

T-shirt Disclosure Information: T-shirts are an additional purchase inside of the registration. If you register for the VIRTUAL march these shirts will be mailed to you. If you register for the Wisconsin IN-PERSON event you will receive your shirt at the event. If the event is forced virtual because of a state or municipal requirement, you will be mailed your shirt. To receive a shirt, you must be registered by 15 October 2023.

**If you register for IN-PERSON and cannot attend, you forfeit your t-shirt. T-shirts will not be shipped unless forced virtual by state or municipal requirement. No exceptions.**

This event is about joining together as a team to fight against Veteran suicide.
