Brownells Donates $100,000 to Task Force Expedition

Sunday, July 21st, 2024

GRINNELL, IA – Task Force Expedition (TFE) is proud to announce Brownells as the Title Sponsor for TFE’s inaugural campaign to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro. As a newly formed 501(c)(3) nonprofit, Task Force Expedition is dedicated to raising funds and awareness for military, first responder, and Second Amendment related nonprofits. Without Brownells generous support, the creation of Task Force Expedition would not have been possible. 

From June 27 to July 8, TFE embarked on its inaugural expedition to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania. This “once in a lifetime” adventure was documented by Prelude Films and will be turned into a feature-length documentary to be released this Fall. The expedition was funded entirely by industry sponsors and each sponsor was paired with a nonprofit organization to form a team. With their Title Sponsorship, Brownells teamed up with Special Operations Wounded Warrior, also known as SOWW. Other teams included the American Suppressor Association Foundation, Frontline Healing Foundation, Special Operations Care Fund, and a nonprofit in the UK that supports members of an elite British Special Forces unit.

The adventure itself wasn’t a competition, but the five teams competed to see who could raise the most funding through public donations By the end of the year, the funds raised by Task Force Expedition will be pooled together and equally distributed among selected nonprofits.

“At Brownells, we are committed to supporting those who protect our freedoms,” said Pete Brownell, Secretary of Task Force Expedition and Chairman of Brownells. “By partnering with Task Force Expedition, we are able to contribute to a cause that aligns with our values and supports our heroes. We are honored to be part of this initiative and look forward to seeing the positive outcomes it will generate.”

Knox Williams, President of Task Force Expedition and the American Suppressor Association Foundation added, “We are incredibly grateful to Pete and the team at Brownells for their unwavering support. Simply put, their donation made the Task Force Expedition possible. We have a tremendous opportunity to make a big impact on the lives of the people that rely on the services provided by these nonprofits. I look forward to working with Pete and his team to climb both the literal and the proverbial mountain ahead as we join forces for a greater good.”

Support the Courser Racing SF Team for The World’s Toughest Row – Pacific

Tuesday, June 25th, 2024

Four Special Forces Veterans vie to row 2800 miles across the Pacific Ocean from Monterey, California to Hanalei on Kaua’i, Hawaii to raise awareness and funds for their worthy cause.

The team is participating in The World’s Toughest Row – Pacific starts in June each year with teams participating from around the World.

Founded by Special Operations Veterans in 2023, Courser Racing is a 501(c)(3) Charleston, SC-based non-profit organization that places Veterans, Law Enforcement, and Firefighters on Ocean Rowing Expeditions to support their transition to the civilian workforce. 

Courser Racing provides support to these communities through a team-based robust maritime training regimen (simulating the rigor of a deployment cycle or emergency response preparation), by leveraging a professional business mentor network for job placement, and providing business experience through organic non-profit activities including fundraising, P+L management, recruiting, marketing, donor relations, and sponsorship contract negotiations.

They chose Ocean Rowing as a vehicle for transition support because it is relatively low cost (the ocean is free) and it mirrors the rigors of service required of Special Operations Veterans, Law Enforcement, and Firefighter/ EMS personnel.
