Our mission is to create transformations in the American wilderness and in the hearts of our female veterans.
Female Veterans | American Land
Combining multiple pressing needs into one effective solution.
American lands need our attention - and equally - so do our female veterans. The Athena Project brings female veterans together as a team, where they can continue to leave a positive impact on their country by caring for the land they fought to protect. It’s time they had their homecoming.
“The women who served our country are as integral to her future as they were on the battlefield.”
— LTC William D. Swenson | Medal of Honor Recipient
