MINDBLOOM PARTNERSHIP

INTRODUCING SFF
STRATEGIC ADVISORY
GROUP: 33A

SFF 33 Alpha is a newly formed collection of spiritual warriors—an invite-only cadre of civilian ADVISORS, ADVOCATES, and ANGEL INVESTORS who stand behind the Special Forces Foundation as a true force multiplier. It offers a rare honor and privilege: the chance to aim your resources, relationships, and influence at something worthy by helping America's finest win their most important battle and get back on offense instead of staying stuck on defense.

ADVISOR

Bring hard-won experience in business, leadership, finance, law, healthcare, or other fields to help guide SFF's strategy, growth, and sustainability.
Offer honest perspective and constructive feedback while respecting the time and bandwidth of Green Berets, SFF staff and other 33A's.

ADVOCATE

Use your platform—social, professional, community, and corporate—to tell the story of the ‘invisible war’ these warriors and families are fighting.
Invite others into the mission through small gatherings, hosted dinners, golf days, office briefings, and introductions that create new allies for SFF.
Help secure sponsorships, grants, matching gifts, and in-kind contributions that expand both funding and awareness.

ANGEL INVESTOR

Quietly step in when specific needs arise—covering gaps that don't fit neatly into a program line item but matter deeply to a family in crisis.
Offer time, presence, prayer, and encouragement when operators, spouses, or Gold Star families need support that cannot be outsourced.

SFF 33 ALPHA — MEMBER EXPECTATIONS

The Special Forces Foundation expects 33 Alpha members to be deeply engaged, high-trust partners who expand both the reach and the impact of its mission. 33As are asked to bring their full weight—relational, financial, professional, and spiritual—behind Green Berets and their families.

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE 33 ALPHA

Treat membership as an honor and privilege, not a casual affiliation.
Uphold the mission, values, and reputation of the Special Forces Foundation and the Special Forces community.
Model integrity, humility, and respect in all interactions.
Respond generously and discreetly, understanding that some of the most important wins will never be public.

CORE COMMITMENTS

Make a meaningful annual financial commitment aligned with your capacity.
Support key SFF events and initiatives each year—such as the gala, major fundraisers, golf tournaments, regional gatherings, private briefings, and hosted small-group events that introduce new donors and partners.
Open doors: introduce SFF to potential donors, sponsors, hosts, and partners.

HOW THEY OPERATE

Respect confidentiality around sensitive stories, situations, and identities.
Offer strategic feedback and connections that expand what's possible for SFF—without adding unnecessary burden to staff.
Personally advise interested Green Berets as they transition from active duty, launch companies, step into leadership roles, or navigate major life and career decisions.
