🚣♂️ ROW FOR 22 — Virtual 5K
Move for a Mission Bigger Than the MilesIn 2028, a father and son from Southern Illinois will attempt one of the most extreme endurance challenges on earth: rowing 2,800 miles across the Pacific Ocean from California to Hawaii.
That son is Aiden, who will be one of the youngest people in history to attempt this crossing. His goal is simple but powerful:
**Row to show other Veterans that life doesn't end when the uniform comes off.Adventure still exists. Purpose still exists. Hope still exists.**
The Row for 22 Virtual 5K is the first major fundraising and awareness event supporting that mission.
Every participant helps fuel the journey that will carry Aiden and his father across the Pacific — and every mile honors the 22 veterans we lose to suicide every single day.
THE MISSIONThe 2028 Pacific Row will support veteran suicide prevention and raise money for veteran programs through the Southern Illinois Veterans Foundation.
