Maybe it’s not about the activity… maybe it’s about connection.

The Fallen Outdoors is doing far more than outdoor trips — they’re building a nationwide community where veterans, Gold Star families, and first responders can reconnect, heal, and find purpose.

With operations in over 35 states and thousands of veterans impacted each year, this organization proves that sometimes the most powerful resource… is simply being around people who understand.

In this episode, we sit down with the leadership behind The Fallen Outdoors to talk about:

Building connection through shared experiences

Supporting veterans beyond traditional systems

Creating real community at scale

Why “meeting people where they are” actually works

In Episode 18 of The Outreach Project Podcast, we sit down with Kyle Benham, founder of MOS Veteran Adventures — a nonprofit that’s changing how veterans are supported across the country.

This isn’t just about hunting and fishing trips…

This is about what happens AFTER the trip ends.

MOS Veteran Adventures is doing what most organizations won’t:
Fully funded hunting & fishing experiences for veterans
Building real brotherhood through shared hardship
Following up — attending VA appointments, checking medications, ensuring care
Supporting veterans AND their families

As Kyle puts it — they do “the fun stuff… and the hard stuff.”

From sitting around campfires to sitting in VA waiting rooms, this episode dives into:

Why outdoor experiences help veterans heal

The massive gap in nonprofit follow-through

How MOS Veteran Adventures is stepping up

Real-world impact stories that will hit you

With over 1.9 million nonprofits in the U.S., the problem isn’t resources — it’s access.

This episode shows what it looks like when someone actually bridges that gap.
