The Warrior’s Keep

Creating content with respect, passion, and healing in mind.

"All veterans were trained to go to war but never trained to come back home."

The Warrior's Keep is a 501(C)(3) nonprofit run by U.S. Veterans in Texas, for the benefit of U.S. Veterans. Their programs are "designed to educate and assist veterans with the difficulties of reconnecting socially while achieving inner peace and healing of the mind."

They accomplish this through outdoor therapy, with the hope of instilling in their participants a sense of purpose now they're out of the military.
Hikes, adventures, and camaraderie are the things that The Warrior's Keep want all veterans integrating back into civilian life to experience.

Freedom Peak 2020

One of the defining features of The Warrior's Keep that distinguishes it from other veteran nonprofits is their "Freedom Peak" program. Freedom Peak is a yearly program in which The Warrior's Keep select veterans from a group of applicants for the ultimate goal of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. Together, this team will complete 6 months of training and work to summit the tallest mountain on the African continent.

As a content creation agency, we jumped on the opportunity to help an organization with a great cause.

As soon as we got the call, we started spinning our gears: "What would make the most sense for this particular client, in order to elevate their brand and mission?" In this digital age, we often find ourselves going back to the same content creation strategy: Intimate, rich media content. Now more than ever, it is important for brands, especially veteran nonprofit organizations, to bond with their fans, donors, friends, and families. Support on all fronts is what helps make organizations like The Warrior's Keep shine.

We started by tagging along on a few of their hikes. Filming, interviewing and taking photos. We're transforming that content into supporting pieces for the organization, for fundraising and promotional purposes.

We created the video below in order to convey the emotional importance of the Freedom Peak experience directly from the Co-Founder and current executive director, John Cody Hardin. This is just the beginning of the content strategy Bamboo Grove Creative has laid out. There are many more hikes to go on, and more summits to.... uh.... summit.

Be on the lookout for more videos and content from The Warrior's Keep as their Freedom Peak 2020 group goes through their training!
