About Catch A Lift Fund

For more than a decade the Catch A Lift Fund (CAL), a national 501c3 non-profit organization, has lifted spirits and saved lives, providing U.S. military combat veterans an array of holistic and practical methods to heal the whole person—mentally, physically, and spiritually. The program helps wounded combat vets find new focus and energy by instilling in them a new, thoughtful, and healthy lifestyle founded on four core pillars: Nutrition, Fitness, Emotional Wellness, and Community. Mentors, coaches, and veteran leaders adapt the program to accommodate for individual abilities, attitudes and aspirations. Finding a personal purpose is the Catch A Lift cure for addiction, dangerous weight gain and debilitating depression. By fostering a commitment to forward movement and getting better every day, renewing personal energy, and choosing to join and serve a broader community, wounded vets find life-saving purposes that they share with others. Catch A Lift was founded in memory of Cpl. Christopher Coffland, U.S. ARMY who was killed in Afghanistan in 2009. Chris’ phrase, “I’m gonna catch a lift,” indicated he was literally heading to the gym, but more importantly, it really meant he was going to get centered, refocused and re-energized. To date, Catch A Lift has funded more than 8,600 wellness grants, providing a real, practical and profound impact to thousands of veterans and caregivers.
