    Okay, let's get weird with it! The first Actionable Awareness Campaign we are throwing down is to provide 100 Veterans with Cold Plunges. Cold Water Immersion has a ton of benefits and is known to reduce depression, anxiety, and pain. Additionally, Cold Plunges increase resilience and curb inflammation; the list goes on. So, we are going to get as many veterans as possible in these things

After a nine-month deployment to Afghanistan in November 2019, Alex Mikhailovsky and his fellow teammates discovered the benefits of CBD for relieving stress, pain, and anxiety. This insight led to the founding of Organic Grit, a company committed to producing high-quality CBD products with a strong focus on community impact. Organic Grit has quickly become a leader in the Nonstandard Therapy space, thanks to their "One Farm, One Strain" approach that ensures potency, consistency, and safety by sourcing CBD from a single Wisconsin farm.

Respected throughout the veteran community for their transparency and exceptional quality, Organic Grit subjects its products to rigorous third-party testing at SC Labs in Colorado. Beyond delivering top-tier CBD products, the company is dedicated to giving back; notably, 12% of the proceeds from every 750MG Organic Grit Roll On sold are donated to NONSTANDARD.
