DONATE TODAY AND MAKE A DIFFERANCE
IN VETERAN SUICIDE
My name is Kyle Retzlaff and I am a 33 year Veteran for the United States Coast Guard, serving as Lieutenant Commander. I am a combat veteran of the Iraqi war, serving 2010-2011. I understand PTSD on a first hand basis and the depression one can have.
I will be walking 22 miles while carrying a 50lb pack. Why 22 miles? It is estimated that around 22 veterans die by suicide everyday. But we don’t want to just raise awareness to this issue. We want to combat and end it. By joining together we will walk in remembrance of the fallen, but never forgotten.
Arrive as one, leave as one of many
Proceeds from this walk will benefit the Quad Cities - Iowa Out of the Darkness Walk hosted by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention - Iowa Chapter.
