Project Gallantly Forward (PGF) offers rest and relaxation at a retreat in rural Tennessee to Veterans with their families who are located nationwide, as well as opportunities for local Veterans to connect- all free of charge!
Because we are a Veteran founded 501c3, we know the importance of connecting Veterans with other Veterans. Through our efforts, and your support, we will let Veterans know they are not alone in their struggles.
Our annual Ugly Sweater Party fundraiser is Saturday, December 14 and we would love for you to partner with us. Below are some ways you can support this event, through donating auction items or sponsorship. Please know that all donations are tax deductible.
Thank you for your consideration.

There will be a live auction at the event, as well as a hybrid silent auction that is available to both attendees and online participants. We are looking for items ranging in price from $100 to $500+! Items could be gift baskets, gift certificates, experiences, products, etc.
- Raffle
We are looking for smaller items ranging in price from $5 to $99 to raffle off throughout the night.
