FITCO Cares Foundation Partners with Former Navy Seal to Provide In-Home Fitness Equipment to Disabled Veterans
DALLAS - (BUSINESS WIRE) - FITCO Cares Foundation, in partnership with former Navy Seal Chris Kyle,
has created the Heroes Project to provide free in-home fitness
equipment, facilitation of donated health club memberships,
individualized programs, personal training and life-coaching to in-need
veterans with disabilities, Gold Star families or those suffering from
post-traumatic stress disorder. The FITCO Cares Foundation is the
company's new non-profit organization, established this year.
"We are honored to have the opportunity to work with Chris in developing
the Heroes Project. Our goal is to help disabled veterans
recover physically and emotionally in their homes," said Jason Kos,
President of FITCO. "By providing them with their own equipment and
passionate people to support and guide them, we feel this will be a
great way to facilitate their recovery and enhance their quality of
life," he said.
FITCO has teamed with former Navy Seal Team #3 Chief Chris Kyle, who
served four combat tours and has been awarded two Silver Stars, five
Bronze Stars with Valor and numerous other achievement medals for his
bravery in battle. Kyle is the author of American Sniper
and President of Craft International, a Texas-based training and
security operation. He devotes much of his spare time to his family and
to helping disabled veterans.
"I have seen first-hand the tragic effects of what war can do to
individuals and families," said Kyle. "These men and women do so much
for our country and this is just one way we can show them we appreciate
their service," he said.
