Outdoor Valor Inc. is a non-profit organization founded in May 2017 by Matt Schwanke, a disabled Iraq War veteran and US Army Tanker OIF Vet. The company aims to provide therapeutic off-shore fishing experiences for veterans and Gold Star family members at no cost. Outdoor Valor was established based on the founder's personal journey of recovery through fishing and his desire to extend these benefits to other veterans suffering from PTSD and related issues.
The organization guarantees that all funds are exclusively utilized for the benefit of participating veterans, with its bylaws clearly stating that no portion of the income shall be used otherwise. Since filing legal paperwork in May 2017, Outdoor Valor has taken numerous veterans out on the water, funded primarily through donations from Matt Schwanke and his family.
Key leadership roles within the organization include Kate Schwanke as Vice President and Secretary/Treasurer. Kate is also a certified school teacher who manages financial records and ensures safety procedures during trips, supported by GPS technology for real-time tracking. Matt Schwanke serves as both CEO and Boat Captain, overseeing all operational aspects of the company on both the east and west coasts.
The organization's primary initiative, termed "Reel Therapy," offers more than just fishing; it encompasses comprehensive therapeutic support aimed at reconnecting veterans with themselves and their communal bonds lost after military service.
