Hey, Ones Ready team! We’ve got to spotlight an incredible organization that's changing lives—QRF Up. This revolutionary app is on a mission to prevent veteran and first responder suicides by offering immediate crisis intervention and comprehensive aftercare support. It’s more than just an app; it’s a lifeline that connects users directly with therapists and mental health professionals in their area, ensuring they get the help they need when they need it the most. The impact? Over 1,100 lives saved in Minnesota alone. QRF Up isn’t stopping there—they’re taking a holistic approach to wellness, integrating physical health, financial aid, and continued education into their support system. They’re partnering with like-minded organizations and are on the lookout for volunteers passionate about making a difference. QRF Up is challenging the status quo in mental health care, pushing the boundaries to provide real, tangible support for those who have served. Their commitment to building a strong, supportive community is what sets them apart, and they’re making strides to break the cycle of mental health struggles that too many veterans and first responders face. This is more than just an initiative; it’s a movement driven by the mission to be better, do better, and create lasting, positive change in our community. Let’s get behind QRF Up and support them in every way we can!

What happens when two veterans take their battle scars and transform them into a lifeline for others? In this gripping episode of "Money in the Military" on Military Broadcast Radio, we sit down with Adam Peters and Mark Messina, the dynamic duo behind QRF Up. Adam and Mark share their raw and inspiring journeys from military service to entrepreneurship, revealing how their personal struggles with mental health fueled their passion to combat the veteran suicide epidemic. Their stories are a testament to the power of turning pain into purpose.

They passionately advocate for veterans supporting each other, underlining how community-driven efforts can make a significant impact. We also explore the financial assistance programs and innovative strategies QRF Up employs to build robust, localized support systems for veterans. From merchandise sales funding crisis interventions to partnerships with adventure-based therapy groups, this episode highlights the comprehensive and collaborative initiatives QRF Up has introduced. Mark and Adam share insights on upcoming events and fundraising activities, including a range day event and a snowmobile giveaway. Their commitment to creating a supportive network for veterans and first responders shines through in every story and plan they share. Join us for an episode brimming with heartfelt stories, community spirit, and actionable steps toward making a difference in the lives of those who've served.

This week we talk to 2 of our own who are explaining the reasoning and their mission behind the QRFup app. The QRFup App is a dedicated service designed to support veterans in times of crisis. Developed by the QRFup organization, the app is part of a larger effort to provide immediate and effective assistance to veterans and their families. QRFup, which stands for Quick Reaction Force, offers a two-stage crisis response system aimed at addressing both immediate and long-term needs.
