REMEMBER EVERYONE DEPLOYED INC.
POMPANO BEACH, FLORIDA

Remember Everyone Deployed, Inc. (RED) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to showing solidarity and support for U.S. military service members and their families. Initiated on April 3, 2015, by Cecil Cooper at Marine Corps Base Camp LeJeune in Jacksonville, North Carolina, the mission of RED is to ensure our troops are never forgotten by encouraging Americans nationwide to wear red every Friday until all troops return home safely. RED engages communities and national levels through awareness campaigns. Money raised from sales and donations supports local nonprofit organizations that assist deployed service members and their families. Cecil Cooper, a veteran himself, initiated the effort as part of the Department of Geo-sciences at Camp LeJeune, highlighting the significance of symbolic gestures like wearing red to foster recognition of those who protect our freedoms round-the-clock. A key figure in RED's advocacy is Gloria De Paul, former Admission Representative at Florida National University. Her long-standing commitment to the program involves spreading its message and supporting military communities since 2016. Currently residing near Camp LeJeune, Gloria actively promotes R.E.D Fridays, which began as a personal endeavor and expanded into a nationwide recognition of service personnel's sacrifices. Based in Pompano Beach, Florida, Remember Everyone Deployed is incorporated with the status of Dos FFLoridaCompanyStatus and follows a structured governance with key members like Gloria Mceo De Paul as Founder and Janette Ramos Chandler as Vice President.
