2/15
High Ground was never just about promoting a film.
We wanted to raise awareness of the courage, strengths, and
challenges of our warriors once they return home. In order to
do this, we partnered with and highlighted the hard work of
over fifty-five organizations that work with veterans and their
families.
All were started by veterans, or someone in the military family.
Some organizations are large, others are run by a handful of
people.But each volunteer carries in their heart, a deep commitment
to those who fight for our freedom.

YOU DONT UNBUILD A SOLDIER
THE REAL BATTLE IS WHEN YOU COME HOME.
PEOPLE DONT UNDERSTAND: WOUNDS ARE DEEPLY PERSONAL.
SOMEONE SHUT OFF THE TV
...AND HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL TURN IT BACK ON.
WHO KNEW?
PEOPLE STILL DONT GET IT THAT NOT ALL PAIN IS PHYSICAL.

High Groundshows the connection of our veterans and military families to a healthy planet.Without mountains to climb, clean air, and cascading pure waters, where else can those who
have been most affected by war go to heal?
We need to ensure that similar resources are available here in the United States for all of our
service members and military families, all of Americans. Thank you for showing in a deeply
personal way the connection between human and environment, and how this connection can
and does heal.

"High Ground tells the story we need to see and hear. One of sacrifice, pain, hope, and healing.There are those who walk among us who have sacrificed so much for our benefit, namely
veterans, spouses, children and parentd. We can't function as a civil society without recognizing
their joy and pain. High Ground reminds us of them, and of what's possible when everyone
aspires to something great."

High Ground has become
a foundation in my
thinking; that on days when
I am struggling, I think
about these woundedwarriors who climbed a
mountain.
If they can do something of
such magnitude with such
tenacity and grace, thensurely I can put forth
energy and finish my task
at hand which is so minor
in comparison.
