HOW FAR WE'VE COME
In 2024, Born Primitive pledged 100% of Veterans Day Weekend profits to eliminate $5 million in veteran medical debt. You more than doubled it, paying off $11 million. Last year, Black Rifle Coffee Company joined the mission and together we paid off $35 million. To date, Operation Debt of Gratitude has now erased more than $50 million in medical debt for more than 25,000 veterans. If we hit this year's goal, that total passes $85 million.

WHY WE GIVE
This Veterans Day, Born Primitive and Black Rifle Coffee Company are joining forces again to eliminate up to $35 million in medical debt for an estimated 20,000 veterans and, for the first time, first responders. Paying off a medical bill does more than clear a balance. It gives the people who served room to focus on their health, their families and their futures without that weight on them.

Things always seem to get darker before they get better. Find something to hold onto until the light comes. You guys were that light for me."
