​Veteran, military, and first responder families have made personal and selfless sacrifices to answer their country's call to duty.  Our vision is to provide volunteer and charitable resources to provide those who stand in harm's way, literally a band of brothers and sisters, an opportunity to participate in a professionally guided outdoor experience, often a dream come true adventure of a lifetime -- our way of saying “Thank You” for your service. The Witkop Foundation is established to honor those sacrifices and to show our appreciation; as well as support outdoor education and promote efforts to conserve natural resources around the globe..
