The Nation Needs Us — We Need You

Our military cannot function without the Reserve Component, and the Reserve Component cannot function without supportive employers. It is our mission to help Reservists (and the public) clearly identify those employers who stand behind them and who show a commitment to the continued strength and readiness of our military forces—real, demonstrable support to serving military members in the civilian workforce.

With your tax-deductible sponsorship of Friendly Forces, you are doing more than just supporting a nonprofit—you are making a powerful statement about your organization’s values. You are investing in the security and stability of our nation, ensuring that those who protect us can do so without sacrificing their careers or financial well-being. Paid military leave is not just a benefit; it is a necessity that allows our Reservists to serve with the confidence and peace of mind they deserve.

When you partner with Friendly Forces, you gain a trusted advisor and a dedicated team to work with you every step of the way. At the moment of engagement, we work closely with your organization to understand your specific needs, culture, and goals and to ensure that the strategies we develop align with your vision for success and long-term objectives.

Your journey for support begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your existing military leave policies, identifying areas for improvement. We then design and implement customized strategies to enhance your policies, making them more supportive, flexible, and Reservist-friendly.

Help Us Fight the Good Fight

Your sponsorship will help us continue our vital work—scaling operations, reaching more employers, spreading awareness, and driving the adoption of supportive workforce policies across the country. It will position your company as a leader in corporate responsibility, showing your employees, customers, and community that you stand with our nation’s defenders.

Join us in this mission. Together, we can create a future where every Reservist has the support they need to serve our country with honor and return to their civilian careers with dignity. Sponsor Friendly Forces today, and be part of a movement that strengthens our national defense, supports our military families, and builds a better tomorrow.

Because when we support our Reservists, we secure the future for all of us.

Competitive Edge and Positive Brand Perception

We’ll use our extensive network and media reach to position your organization as one that lives the DEI, CSR, and people-first values it espouses—a doer, not a talker. A 2019 Edelman Trust Barometer found that 78% of consumers are more likely to trust and purchase from companies that show a commitment to supporting military personnel.

Your organization will be highlighted as Reservist-Friendly on the platform with increased visibility to Reservist candidates and other veterans and we will help socialize your current openings to these audiences. You’ll also have the opportunity to appear in media, webcasts, and interviews.
