Keeping one aspect of the in-person Live event intact from the work we did in '18 and '19. I'll be there once more. There may be chicken-clucks. Someone will probably think I'm too loud.

And we'll do amazing work for Stack Up once more!

We're celebrating 10 years of Stack Up with our Call to Arms X LIVE event in-person in Los Angeles.

Joining us as our master of ceremonies is GryphonAMX who has been raising money for Stack Up every year since 2015. It was a no-brainer to bring him along for our birthday celebration.

Some of Stack Up's growth over 10 years has been through our Stacks program. This pillar program allows us to bring together Veterans, Active Military, and supportive civilians in local volunteer pods.

Thank you to the 312 people who have volunteered with us over the years!

During Stack Up's nearly 10 years in operations, we've taken 134 Veterans and Active Duty Military servicemembers on 48 Air Assault trips.

From conventions like SDCC to PAX and other nerd culture events to Stack Up's LA headquarters, we've made sure they've all had a great and memorable time.

Together, we raised $900 for @stackup.org! I cannot express how much of an honor this has been. This community, these Crows and these friends are more than I could have ever asked for.

Thank you all so much.
