When I first came across Raising Tactical Daughters, I felt like I had finally found a cause that spoke directly to my heart. As a mom raising two girls in today’s world, I worry constantly—about their safety, their confidence, their ability to stand up for themselves.

Donating wasn’t even a question. It felt like an extension of my parenting. Every time I give, I imagine a young girl somewhere learning how to say no, how to defend herself, how to walk with confidence. I imagine her becoming someone who knows her worth.

Supporting this mission reminds me that we’re not powerless. We’re raising a generation of fierce, aware, and strong women—and I’m proud to be part of that.”

As a veteran, I’ve always believed in the power of preparation. But until I found Raising Tactical Daughters, I’d never seen a program that actually equips young women for the real threats they might face—not just physical, but emotional, digital, and psychological.

My donation felt like an investment—not in gear or slogans—but in knowledge, confidence, and community. What these girls are learning goes beyond self-defense; they’re learning how to walk into any room knowing they belong there.

I gave once. Then I gave again. Because this mission doesn’t just matter—it works.

I’m not someone who has a lot to give financially—being a college student, every dollar counts. But when I saw a video of a 13-year-old girl speaking about how Raising Tactical Daughters helped her face bullying, I felt this overwhelming sense that I had to do something.

So I gave $10. It wasn’t much, but I later got an email showing how small gifts like mine helped fund a self-esteem workshop at a local middle school. I cried. It reminded me that change doesn’t always come from big checks—sometimes, it comes from big hearts.

This nonprofit makes people feel seen. It made me feel seen. I’ll keep giving as often as I can.

Like any mom, my biggest fear is not being there when my daughter needs me most. The world can be scary, and the news doesn’t help. But discovering Raising Tactical Daughters changed that.

I enrolled my daughter in one of their weekend safety and awareness camps. The transformation was unreal—she came back standing straighter, more self-assured, asking thoughtful questions about boundaries and respect.

I became a monthly donor that same week. Because what they teach isn’t just self-defense. It’s self-worth. And that gives me peace.

There are a lot of things in life I can’t control. But supporting Raising Tactical Daughters is something I can do. And I do it proudly.

I’ve taken my girls to their workshops, and I’ve seen them learn how to navigate tough situations—online and offline. They’re learning to speak up for themselves and for others.

My donations are my way of making sure this work doesn’t stop. Because I want other dads to have this peace of mind too.

Being in the military, I’ve spent a lot of time away from home. And nothing eats at me more than not being there to protect my family. That’s why I support Raising Tactical Daughters.

They teach our girls how to be alert, how to react, how to stay calm under pressure. That’s what real protection looks like—and I trust this team to do it right.

Every time I give, I feel like I’m still doing my job—protecting my daughters and others like them. From wherever I am in the world.
