Big Fish Foundation

A huge thank you to for creating these custom throwing axes for the Annual Challenge.

These incredible axes won’t just be used during the Challenge… they’re also available for supporters to win!

How to enter:
Donate $1,000 through the link in our bio in support of our biggest fundraising event of the year.

A $1,000 donation can be the difference between a Veteran being able to attend a Big Fish Foundation event or staying on the sidelines. Through your support, you’re helping remove financial barriers and making sure more Veterans have access to the connection, purpose, and community they deserve.

And because one isn’t enough, we have TWO custom axes ready to give away.

Your support helps Veterans access life-changing experiences. These axes are just our way of saying thank you.

Did you hear? The pistol challenge is back this year! Thanks to for bringing this fan-favorite challenge back to the Annual Challenge.

Watch competitors put their skill and composure to the test as they move through a specially designed course and engage targets under pressure!

Pick your favorite Veteran or Athlete, make a donation, and help them climb the leaderboard!

Who are you betting on?

Navy rep Kevin Marshall!

“I’m a father, avid skier, CrossFitter, and proud dog dad. I served as a Navy Corpsman for 12 years, and the mindset of service and taking care of the people around me has stayed with me long after my time in uniform ended.

After transitioning out, one of the hardest things to navigate has been finding the deeper “why,” in what I do with my time. My work can easily become centered around numbers and deadlines, but I’ve found the most fulfillment through authentic connection, helping people solve problems, and creating real impact in their lives. That desire to serve others never really goes away.

That’s one of the reasons I was drawn to the Big Fish Foundation. I respect organizations that stay true to their mission, and Big Fish is making a real impact by helping veterans through transition, connection, resilience, and purpose. While I haven’t personally benefited from the organization, I believe deeply in what they are building and wanted to support a mission that truly serves the veteran community.

I chose to participate in this fundraiser because I love a challenge and believe there is value in doing hard things alongside other people. The grit, camaraderie, and shared purpose behind this event are the same things that shaped me during my service and continue to shape me today.”
