The All In All The Time Foundation, was established in 2008 as a tribute to the memory of Senior Chief Tom Valentine by his wife Christina Valentine. Their purpose is to fill the interim needs of the surviving spouses and children of our fallen warriors. Needs such as Legal fees, wills, estate management, household and auto repairs, counseling assistance (outside the military chain) and critical, immediate non-standard support categories.
All In strives to fill in the gaps by addressing the in between years. While this foundation can never replace these heroes, they work very hard to alleviate some of the burdens faced when a family has lost their provider.
It is abundantly clear Christina Valentine’s only desire is to run this organization and to serve her community and nation, with honor and integrity, just like Tom did.
Hillier Ignite is proud to stand with and support an organization so passionate about engaging the needs of spouses and families who find their lives forever changed by tragedy. It is our honor to present The All In, All The Time Foundation the 2015 Warrior for Warriors Award, and a check for $25,000.

Lee Deckelman is a former Special Operations Combat Vet/ Security Contractor, and founder of Echelon Grey Foundation, a Non-Profit 501 (c) (3) (pending) Charity. The goal of Echelon Grey is to support Veterans and contractors through suicide intervention/prevention and supporting mental health services at home.
While awaiting federal approval for the foundation, Lee has embarked on an Appalachian Trail Thru Hike Mission, with the goal:
“to promote and bring awareness to the public via a mini-documentary/hike along the AT. I feel the environment/ setting is the perfect backdrop for a Global War on Terror Documentary. Over the 4-5 months it will take me to complete the entire hike, I hope to interview 20-30 individuals who volunteer to meet me along the trail, and who represent all the traditional and non-traditional roles Americans serve in overseas”.
Lee is 1/3 of the way to Maine, currently in Northern Virginia, and requires a supplement to his budget to complete the journey.
