Empowering and Employing Veterans

We’re discussing the immense value of employing Veterans for business owners, the country and the Veterans themselves with special guests Chad Watts, CEO of Scars and Stripes Coffee and Major Ed Pulido, Co-Founder of the John-Daly Major Ed Heart of a Lion Foundation. We discuss the value of teamwork, accountability and mission focus that Veterans bring to post-service careers and the resources for businesses that hire them.

Scars and Stripes Coffee empowers Veterans to build their own business using our e-commerce platform and through direct-to-consumer sales via events. When you buy coffee from Scars and Stripes, you are buying from a Veteran and your purchase directly impacts the men and women who have served our country.

2-time PGA Major Champion John Daly and Combat Wounded Veteran Major Ed Pulido, U.S. Army (Ret.) and Purple Heart recipient joined forces to make a major impact on the world of philanthropy. Both men know how important it is to have a great heart for America’s children, first responders and our nation’s Veterans.

“Our goal is to help veterans become entrepreneurs. We feel like veterans are the most suited to become entrepreneurs. Think about their service: they go in scared to death, the military breaks them down and then builds them back up, and then they’re capable of taking on any enemy without a problem. They’re not afraid of anything. You give them the mission and the assets – failure is not an option.”
