honor your hero and legacy
In addition to our remembrance post on social media, we invite you to honor your hero and their legacy by placing a dog tag in remembrance on our military cross.
A military cross, also known as a battlefield cross or soldier's cross, is a symbolic memorial traditionally used to honor fallen soldiers. It typically consists of a soldier’s boots, helmet, and a rifle stuck barrel-down into the ground. In some ceremonies, dog tags are added as a personal tribute to each fallen service member. This cross serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifice made by those who served and a powerful way to keep their memory alive.

birthday card program
In our mission to provide Honor, Hope, and Healing, we aim to ensure that children and siblings who have lost a loved one in active-duty service feel remembered and supported. Our program is dedicated to honoring these young individuals with a personal touch on their special day.
By registering on our website, children and siblings will receive a personalized birthday card each year. From the time they’re registered until they turn 21, your child will receive a birthday card in the mail, signed by one of our team members, along with a $25 Wal-Mart gift card they can use to treat themselves to something special.

scholorship program
The Ruck Up Foundation is proud to announce that we annually award $500 scholarships to family members of fallen heroes who served in active duty. Each scholarship is non-renewable and can be used at a college, university, or trade/vocational school of the recipient’s choice, helping them pursue their dreams of higher education or vocational certification. This is our way of saying, “Thank you, from a grateful nation.”
