A Message From CEO

Michael Anthony

GratitudeAmerica changed my life, and without their programs, I do not know where I would be.   I was a combat veteran who was struggling and I knew I needed to change. In 2015, I attended a GratitudeAmerica Military Support Retreat and those 4 days had a profound impact on me - I left ready to make significant changes in my life.  Not only did I begin working on myself, but I began to volunteer with GratitudeAmerica.  My volunteerism blossomed into a job with the organization, and six years later - I am GratitudeAmerica’s CEO.  Why do our programs work?  The ‘secret sauce’ is bringing Vets and their support people together in one place — the human element is really what heals people when they are anxious and depressed.  Our programs are truly the gold standard for Veterans looking to make a positive change.

Every facet of this retreat has been a growing experience.  I leave a better person, my wife and I leave as a stronger couple.
