OUR MISSION

The mission of Operation Cherrybend is to work to help veterans know–we get it. We appreciate them for their courage, selflessness and sacrifice to our country. We also know that at times, life can be difficult and there doesn’t feel like there is any place to fit in. Through outdoor adventures and recreation, community engagement events, and music–we strive to build a Veteran network and provide a community of veterans and civilians banded together to fight the effects of PTSD and veteran suicide. We also hope to educate the general public about the trials and challenges of wounded veterans, and all veterans who struggle to assimilate into civilian life. Twenty-two American veterans commit suicide daily, which we hope to bring awareness to and give those struggling within our community an alternative–a network and access to our “family”. #22nomore

FELLOWSHIP

Operation Cherrybend – a very special grassroots event that combines our American combat wounded veterans with Nashville singer-songwriters. The platform of outdoor adventures and music provides the language and opportunity to come together in fellowship.

MUSIC

Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind, gives it rest, heals the heart and makes it whole.
