Whether you’re a seasoned disc golfer or just attending for the fun, there’s something for everyone. This family-friendly event is the perfect way to show support while enjoying a day out.
Why The Balanced Veterans Network?
BVN is a thriving community that offers a peer-to-peer network of veterans and their families taking their healing journey into their own hands. More than just a non-profit, BVN provides essential education, resources, and a support system to help veterans embrace alternative therapies for managing mental health, pain, and emotional well-being.
Veterans face many unique challenges after their service, including the mental and emotional costs of their sacrifices. Less than 10% of the U.S. population serves in the military, and those who do often face difficulties transitioning back to civilian life. BVN’s initiatives are designed to help veterans and their families reclaim a balanced and fulfilling life.
BVN offers support through five key initiatives:
- Community: Building a strong, supportive network of veterans and their families.
- Mental Wellness: Providing mental health resources and education.
- Movement: Promoting physical wellness through fitness and movement.
- Operation 1620: Helping veterans transition back to civilian life with purpose and support.
- Project Triangle: Offering a holistic approach to veterans’ well-being.
How Cannabis Supports Veterans
Cannabis has shown to be a valuable tool in supporting veterans, especially those dealing with mental health challenges like PTSD, anxiety, and depression, as well as chronic pain from service-related injuries. By supporting BVN, you are helping veterans gain access to alternative therapies, like cannabis, that can offer relief and improve their quality of life.
Here’s how cannabis can help:
- Pain Relief: Cannabis offers a natural alternative to opioids for chronic pain management, reducing dependency on prescription painkillers.
- Mental Wellness: Cannabis can help manage symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, and depression, offering relief from the emotional burdens that many veterans carry.
- Improved Sleep: Veterans often struggle with insomnia, and cannabis can aid in restoring healthy sleep patterns.
- Overall Balance: Regular cannabis use can help veterans manage stress and promote emotional well-being, supporting their journey toward balance.
How You Can Make a Difference
- Shop at nuEra on May 23rd: When you purchase nuEra House of Brands products, 5% of the revenue will go directly to BVN.
- Join us for the Finding Balance Tournament on May 24th: Whether you’re playing or just attending, it’s a fun way to support veterans while enjoying a great community event.
- Donate directly at the register: Every donation counts, and 100% of your contribution will go to BVN’s programs.
Let’s make this Memorial Day weekend one to remember by coming together to support those who have given so much for our country. We’re proud to help make a lasting difference in the lives of our veterans through this fundraiser.
