No Barriers Warriors

Warriors to Summits is one of many experiential expeditions No Barriers Warriors offers. View our full list of current programs today.

No Barriers Warriors is a part of No Barriers USA, whose mission is to unleash the potential of the human spirit. No Barriers Warriors empowers veterans and transitioning service members with disabilities, and survivors of the fallen, to overcome barriers and unleash their potential. Experiences serve as both an opportunity for growth and catalyst for change, as these brave men and women stretch boundaries, build teams, innovate through adversity and step up to lead and serve others.

No Barriers Warriors expeditions use the mountain as both a metaphor and a training ground. Experiences are comprised of three phases: comprehensive preparation, the transformative event, and meaningful reintegration. Every experience is geared toward providing a catalyst for change, establishing a lifelong ropes team and giving warriors the tools to live a No Barriers Life.

Our expeditions have taken us to Nepal, Ecuador, Peru, the South Pole and locations around the U.S. including Mt. Whitney, the highest peak in the contiguous United States. Warriors to Summits 2015 expedition takes us to Gannett Peak, WY in the Wind River Range. The program is underway with the summit of Gannett Peak set for September.

About Wells Fargo’s Military Affairs Program

In 2012, Wells Fargo created a Military Affairs program to elevate its efforts in serving active duty military and veterans, and named a Military Affairs Program manager. Within the first two years, Wells Fargo donated more than $49 million to homeownership, career transition and financial education initiatives.

The Company:

• Donated or was in the process of donating more than 230 Real Estate Owned (REO) properties valued at more than $37 million to wounded veterans
• Hired more than 3,600 veterans and participated in more than 500 military job fairs
• Launched Hands on Banking® for Military, a financial education program that has been viewed by more than 40,000 people since last year
• Donated nearly $12 million to military- and veteran- related nonprofits

From the start of our program, Wells Fargo always believed in giving a hand up, rather than a hand out. The Company plans to take that a step further in 2015 by helping empower military members, veterans and their families to own homes, and achieve professional and financial success. Wells Fargo is also proud to renew and expand its relationship with No Barriers USA in 2015 through its sponsorship of the Warriors to Summits expedition.
