Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4A

“In 2019, challenge america launched an ambitious new national program for injured veterans, overhauled an existing program for women veterans, and expanded yet another program for veterans with post-traumatic stress to a new location. Through its exciting new partnership with the veterans health administration innovation ecosystem, challenge america launched its challenge america: makers for veterans program. This program included more than 200 engineers and other subject-matter experts, who volunteered their time to create 17 innovative solutions that improve the lives of injured veterans. This program generated four provisional patents, with more than half of the prototypes progressing to the next stage of product development. Through a partnership with acumen solutions, challenge america developed a new online platform for its military sisterhood initiative, with plans to launch this platform in the first quarter of 2021. Through a partnership with bison peak lodge, challenge america expanded its music therapy program to colorado and modified the program to include overnight lodging opportunities for veterans who struggle with post-traumatic stress.”
