RVN3 Bubba Run is a fun event for the whole family to raise money for the RVN3 Foundation. All proceeds will go directly into supporting local students in athletic and educational goals. We firmly believe that by helping support our athletes we are in turn helping promote and encourage their educational goals as well.

Richard Vernon Nielsen III, known by family and friends as Bubba, was taken from this world too early at the young age of 22. His life revolved around sports, mainly soccer, basketball, and track but also included football, golf, wrestling, and snowboarding. Being such a competitive athlete, he did not let anything get in the way of being able to participate in whatever sport the season called for. This met staying out of trouble and keeping his grades up to be eligible to play. From his years in sports Bubba gained lifelong qualities of teamwork and leadership and built up sense of confidence that no one could take away from him. All of that helped him excel through the short but fulfilled life he shared with us.

He is the inspiration behind the RVN3 foundation, where we hope to use sports to promote education and support kids in their academic and athletic endeavors alike.

Battle of the Branches is an annual event to raise awareness in the fight against Veteran suicide.

The 5K Run / Walk event is a friendly competition between all branches of the military.

One Branch wins the title for the most registered participants.

but the real WINNERS are the Veterans, their families, and those of you who registered for the event.

Proceeds from this event support Veteran-specific services, including Navigation, Peer Support, Advocacy, and Education

It is estimated that at least one in five Veterans and service members will struggle with substance abuse, relationship issues, stress, hopelessness, and even thoughts of suicide. It is reported that 22 Veterans per day complete suicide, which is substantially higher in comparison to the general population. As part of the Rally Point Arizona Navigator program, the goal is to reduce those numbers.

Rally Point Navigators provide the needed guidance, access to resources, and peer support necessary to ensure those who have served us know they are not alone. While services provided are free to Veterans, military members, and their families, financial support through fundraisers, donations, and sponsorships is needed to support the Rally Point Arizona Navigator program and any veteran-specific services. To learn more about Rally Point Arizona, visit https://www.rallypointaz.org/

Your registration helps in the Fight against Veteran Suicide.
