Join us as we shine a spotlight on The Marcus Foundation's impactful work with Senior Program Director and combat veteran Marcus Ruzek. A former Green Beret, Ruzek shares his unique journey from Army Special Forces to leading the philanthropic vision of Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus. Discover the foundation's "entrepreneurial philanthropy" approach, which focuses on tackling the veteran suicide epidemic by going "narrow and deep" on Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Post-Traumatic Stress (PTS), and substance abuse through the Avalon Action Alliance. Learn the powerful story of how the foundation invests in human capital, why traditional mental health isn't working, and the critical role of organizations like the Warrior Alliance in connecting veterans to life-saving resources. A must-listen for veterans, philanthropists, and anyone passionate about veteran support.
