2024 Memorial Day Ruck March for Veterans Mental Health

  • St. Johns Center for Opportunity University of Portland: Varsity Sports Practice Field 5000 N. Willamette Blvd. Portland, OR 97203 (map)

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and Do Good is doing our part to support Veterans mental health. This Memorial Day, let’s ruck together to show our Veterans they are not alone.
The leading causes of houselessness among Veterans are PTSD, mental health, social isolation, & behavioral health.

Join Do Good Multnomah on May 27th to ruck, march, and walk to impact Veterans mental health.

4, 6, and 12 mile routes available! The adventure begins in North Portland. 

In the military, a ruck—short for "rucksack”—is group march where service members carry their essential gear over a specific distance. On May 27th, Veterans and civilian community members are rucking together to show our Veterans they are not alone. 

Register at DoGoodRuck.org. Proceeds to benefit Do Good Multnomah, a NPO that provides support services and low-barrier shelter to houseless Veterans.


We’re with our Veterans every step of the way, because we know this is hard work.
