CHARITY
Mission 22
All proceeds from The Unknown Adventure go to this charity.
Every day, Veterans return home from service and find themselves in a different kind of battle, one against isolation, trauma, and invisible wounds. Too many lose that fight. We exist to change the outcome.
Mission 22 is a national community that stands beside our Veterans and their families—not just in word, but in action. Through innovative programs, powerful memorials, and a growing network of support, we provide the tools, relationships, and education needed to heal. Our work is built around one truth: no one heals alone.
Our mission is simple—stand in the gap where traditional systems fall short, and fight every day to reduce Veteran suicide.
ABOUT
Who Are We?
The Unknown Adventure is a collective of off-road enthusiasts who crave the thrill of the unknown, while traveling completely self sufficient in your multi-purpose off road vehicle. We embark on exhilarating journey through rugged terrain, navigating mountain trails, back country roads, conquering rocky obstacles, and exploring hidden gems. Embracing the multi-day off-road adventure, you follow the lead vehicle, being equipped with everything needed for repairs, camping, and immersing ourselves in the untamed beauty of the wilderness. The Unknown Adventure is for those who seek adventure beyond the beaten path, where the journey itself is the reward.
