The entertainment industry has always provided a unique role in support of our men and women who have served our country.
Joining our crusade is a dedicated, impassioned celebrity taskforce; we call the “Freedom Force.” Comprised of prominent actors, performers, sports icons and nationally-recognized business professionals, the Freedom Force serves as a cornerstone in creating branded messages of support and aiding in promotional activities of The Courage Community.
Featured Celebrity Ambassador: Kix Brooks, Brooks & Dunn
“I can’t overstate how exciting it is to see an organization take the initiative to bring, not just rehabilitation, but also activities that include fun and entertainment, to the brave men and women who have sacrificed a part of themselves for the freedoms of all Americans – I’ve known Carlana Stone for many years, and the grace and wonderful smile, that she brings to the world around her, has always inspired me - I’ve never thought of her as disabled, merely confined to a wheelchair – I have no doubt, along with the other leaders of this organization, a lot of wounded soldiers are about to find out, there is far more opportunity in their “new” world than they would have ever imagined – contributing whatever I can is something I’m also sincerely looking forward to – and I would certainly hope anyone who gets the opportunity to do their part would feel the same way.”
God Bless,
Kix Brooks, Brooks and Dunn
