The Lasting Mission

Chive Charities has been a game-changer for veterans, military families, and first responders, providing life-changing grants for medically necessary needs often overlooked by traditional resources. From wheelchair-accessible vehicles to service dogs and adaptive home modifications, their support restores independence and well-being to those who have sacrificed for our country and their loved ones. In this episode of The Lasting Mission, Brian Mercedes, Executive Director of Chive Charities, shares how the organization is also investing in alternative therapies—like hyperbaric oxygen therapy, PEMF mats, and infrared saunas—to help veterans manage pain, reduce stress, and heal both physically and emotionally. Tune in to hear how Chive Charities is making the world 10% happier and changing lives one grant at a time.
