Our Mission For Veterans
Our goal each year is to raise money, connection, and awareness to strengthen and support our Veteran service community, on a local and national level. Equally important is honoring the sacrifices of everyone who served and their families. Below are opportunities to learn more about our work with the VSOs we support, the services available to Veterans through that work, and the efforts Swim With A Mission invests in our community to make it a place where Veterans want to live and work.
We cannot do this work alone. Will you join us today?

Become a SWAM Athlete For Our Cause
When you run for SWAM, you are not just fundraising. You are directly supporting programs that serve Veterans.
Every marathon, every bib, and every mile supports a specific mission and goal.
Commission With A Mission
Commission With A Mission is a commitment by companies and their employees to donate a portion of each commission paid to support Swim With A Mission’s mission for Veterans.
Cohen Closing & Title partnered with Swim With A Mission because they believe in making a difference beyond just business. By participating in Commission With A Mission, their associates will proudly donate a portion of their commission to strengthen and support worthy organizations that service, support and honor our Veterans. Cohen Closing & Title has also committed to matching these donations dollar for dollar.
SWAM has partnered with Cohen Closing & Title to pilot this program. We plan to open this program to additional companies in 2026. Please contact info@swam.org to be one of the first companies in the US to join this program and support our Veterans!
SWAM has committed a $15,000 matching grant to support the Gulf Wars and War on Terror Memorial being built in Manchester. The memorial will honor New Hampshire service members, families, and civilians impacted by conflicts from 1990–2021 and is scheduled for dedication on Memorial Day 2026.
With a little over $30,000 left to raise, every donation will now be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $15,000, doubling the community’s impact.
This memorial will serve as a lasting place of reflection, remembrance, and gratitude for generations to come.
Donations toward the memorial can be made at www.swam.org. When making a donation to support this monument, please add the words “monument” so we will know it’s for this matching grant.
End the Stigma.
SWAM is on a mission to share the stories of our services members who died by suicide who served in the Global War on Terror.
Thank you to our 2026 sponsors!
