Our Partners
Standing Together.
Freeman Douglas stands with the organizations that stand with veterans — and they stand with us. These are our partners.
Nautical Salute Corporation
Anchor Partner — Veterans Helping Veterans
Nautical Salute gets veterans on the water — boat outings, gatherings, and community built around one idea: no veteran fights alone. Based in Leesburg, Florida, their events raise money and awareness for veterans' mental health, including the annual Invisible Wounds Poker Run, where 100% of proceeds fund veterans' mental health programs — and Freeman Douglas is a proud sponsor.
Their events: Giving Tuesday, December 1, 2026 · Invisible Wounds Poker Run 2, Saturday, March 20, 2027, Gator Harley-Davidson, Leesburg.
Heroes in the Sky Foundation
Community Partner — Honoring our heroes in the sky
Crafts personalized memorial ceremonies — memorial boards with name tapes and battle-vest recognition — honoring first responders, active-duty military, veterans, and those who lost their internal war, while supporting surviving families.
Still F*cking Here (We Are SFH)
Mission Partner — Apparel that fights back

Veteran Legacy
Community Partner — Road to 100
