CAPIS Partners with Catch A Lift To Support Post 9/11 Combat Injured Veterans

This marks the event's second year running and CAPIS' continued support

DALLAS, TEXAS - October 10, 2024 - CAPIS, a compliance-driven institutional broker headquartered in Dallas, is proud to announce that it is partnering again with Catch A Lift (CAL), a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping post-9/11 combat-injured veterans regain their mental and physical health, as a Platinum Sponsor of their second annual golf outing in Grapevine, Texas. This year's event is set to take place on Friday, November 8th, at the Cowboys Country Club. Tickets to play alongside veterans and proud military supporters can be purchased here.

CAPIS CEO Ann Sebert commented on the partnership saying: "We are proud to be partnering with CAL for the second year in a row, as their impactful work has made a considerable difference in the lives of our country's veterans and their families. At CAPIS, we are committed to causes that align with our values of community and service, and we couldn't be more excited to be a part of this year's event. Together, we hope to make an even greater contribution to this important cause."

Catch A Lift's Director of Development Jessica Drew, added: "We are greatly appreciative of CAPIS' continued support in this year's second annual golf outing. To date, the Catch A Lift Fund has served over 11,000 veterans and caregivers nationwide; without the support of our corporate partners like CAPIS, the scope of our work might not be as great."

Since its founding in 2010, Catch A Lift Fund (CAL) provides Afghanistan (OEF) and Iraq (OIF) combat-injured veterans the tools necessary for regaining control over their physical and mental recovery. Each participant works with a certified veteran coach to build a custom eight-week holistic wellness program based on CAL's four pillars of fitness, nutrition, emotional wellness, and community. Veteran coaches oversee the program design to ensure consistent accountability and mentorship while guiding veterans through behavioral change, ensuring success. Upon completing the initial wellness program, graduates are eligible for financial grants for home gym equipment or membership to a fitness facility of their choice nationwide.

CAL includes adaptive athletes, those wanting to lose weight, those seeking community, and more. Program participants become part of the family with continued engagement fostered through CAL's year-round outreach. In addition, members receive access to a proprietary wellness website, a private, veteran-only social network, and educational certifications. The program's overall impact distinguishes CAL for its effect on so many lives and its transparency and leadership. CAL has the tools to help them recover holistically.
