ABOUT BOOT CAMPAIGN
Boot Campaign was started in 2009 by five hard-working professional women from very diverse backgrounds. After reading the book “Lone Survivor” by Marcus Luttrell, they were humbled by what those in military service endure, providing them the freedom to pursue their own professional careers. With that in mind, they formed Boot Campaign to give back to our military personnel and their families. Boot Campaign is a national 501(c)(3) charitable organization headquartered in Georgetown, Texas. Retail sales of combat boots, apparel and mission-focused merchandise, general public donations and corporate sponsorships fund programs that support veterans, active duty military service men and women and their families. The Boot Campaign mission is to promote patriotism for America and our military community; raise awareness of the unique challenges service members face during and post-service; and provide assistance to military personnel, past and present, and their families.
